Tea Party Nation, the ones who held the tea party convention where Palin was the keynote speaker, has a solution to help the economy. They want every small business owner to take this pledge:

"I, an American small business owner, part of the class that produces the vast majority of real, wealth producing jobs in this country, hereby resolve that I will not hire a single person until this war against business and my country is stopped."

"I hereby declare that my job creation potential is now ceased."

"I'm on strike!"

Another difference between the OWS'rs and the teabaggers. One group is looking for solutions, the other looking to make things worse.

Once again, you are the LAST person here to lecture anyone about anything, as you are one of the biggest hypocrites on this board.

It is little wonder you sympathize with a bunch of smelly, brainless, too-stupid-to-be-employable idiots occupying Wall Street. Your solutions are mindless, have been proven failures, and cause more misery than they alleviate.

Your lack of independent thought, and the absence of any critical analysis skills makes you a perfect little socialist drone Fuzz.

We do have great health insurance. We are fortunate.

No you're not. I'm sure your wife works hard for those benefits.

Which is true for most of the people out there who aren't a bunch of parasites on society.

But you assume that because someone is willing to compensate someone else for their effort, it is simply "luck." You are such a frickin' idiot.

It's interesting that the Occupy Wall Street drones are now making student loans their rallying cry.

Didn't Idi Amin Jr. and his thugs take that over not too recently?

Such wry wit -
I’ll admit though, I do have to work to understand gay humor.
Does “tailgater’ mean you’re a “back door” man?

With all the times you have told us how hard you work and how good you are at what you do you must be ready to retire about now with several million to live the good life. If not you aren't working hard enough and only have yourself to blame.

I know many many people who work or worked much, much harder than my wife, my father is one, and never had it as easy as we do. Great country for some, but 'hard work' is not the explanation for fortune. My wife is smart and does her job well and will continue to be promoted because of it, but 'hard work' it's not.

For example, you like to complain how the liberals and the government are making things hard for you to succeed all the time. If you were born into a family with good connections, wealth and some pull in an industry or community, I'm sure you'd find those things not to be a problem.

Obviously. I'm naturally gifted with more intelligence, but I've also exercised my brain more. 🤦

But recognizing that life is not fair and then proceeding to create laws and situations to make that unfairness even worse is not only mean, it's immoral, predatory and anti-democratic.

But punishing those that work hard with more taxes to give to the lazy is moral right ?

I've already said that those who make more don't necessarily work harder and that those who may need help aren't necessarily lazy, so the entire premise of your question is not accepted. See, if you had actually read what I wrote and worked harder at strengthening your brain you wouldn't have asked such a stupid question.

Well that means I would have to accept the premise of your argument and I find fault with it. Your way of dismissing what everyone's opinion that disagrees with you to appease your ideology is amusing.

Thanks.

So you don't agree with my premise meaning that everyone that 'works hard' makes a lot of money and everyone that is on public assistance is lazy?

Unable to work because they are sick, injured or handicapped? No, of course not. Responsible for children? Where do the children go? People who are looking for a job it would be great to have an educational or training program that would be effective to help them get back into the workplace, if there were jobs to get.

Treating people as if they were our slaves to make them do as we wish because we feel as if they are beneath us is simply not a road I think we want to go down. We already are using prison labor for cheap corporations, a practice that puts us on par with the Chinese.

Not that I put too much faith in the people on assistance, it's that I don't put enough faith in the government a-holes who would oversee such a program. I would always err on the side of human rights. What you are suggesting leads to too many ways to abuse those rights.

The Tea Party is just another right wing push to help corporations and their owners at the expense of the working class. And they’re not doing so badly at it. Hell, they’ve got conservatives so focused on how “the poor rip them off’ that they are blind to how we really are being ripped off – by laws that favor corporate owners.

The courts now rule that corporations have human rights – and the Tea Party whines about people on WIC. Typical.
