That make sense?
Why are you dependent on the rich? The way you talk they control you.

Why do you think i am dependent upon them? I simply make reasonable arguments based upon their control and ownership of much of the country.

Why do you seem to think that rich people getting even richer is actually good no matter what?

I'm laughing at you dumb asses. You "believed" Obama. You actually believed he was going after the rich yet even when the rich keep getting richer you still believe him.

We get it, you have a beef with people that are more successful than you. It looks like they'll have 2 more years of getting rich.

LOL. And most of us are laughing at certain dumb asses here as well. Did I believe Obama? LOL. He was elected a president, not god. You seem to actually believe he has godlike powers though.

And no apparently you do NOT get it. Try re-reading my post. Reading is fundamental.

Starving the middle and lower class? You ever think that those people forgo their proper meals so they can buy things like fake farmland on a computer game, things they couldn't afford in the first place and certainly can't afford to pay for twice/thrice, cell service they don't need, smart phones they don't need, Internet speeds they don't need, cable and satellite services they don't need, crap food that makes them sick... etc.

Short of a few criminals rich people got rich because people are falling all over themselves to hand their money over to them. How stupid is it to subsidize that behavior by giving it back to those morons? Haven't you ever heard of positive reinforcement for negative actions.
