Class warfare alive and well in America

Well it seems like we have reached the point where we should begin to coordinate sides. In todays' paper it reads 1 out of every 2 Americans are in poverty or poor.

As we have also recognized there are enimies on these boards. We have Stamos whom feels that the amount of Wealth one has should give them the upper hand on his fellow citizen. The wealthier one deserves more respect. The wealthier one should be able to break humanity laws. Wealthy ones should not have to abide by any laws as they are above concerning status.

What should we do Mr. Stamos? Should the wealthy have control over the poor? Should the 1 poor American work as a slave for you? Should we go back to slavery? As we know that you feel that the wealthy should not have to follow morales!

Stamos, what should we do with the wealthy person who has dedicated their lives to assisting the poor? What side should they be on? As members of the poor class want to have these traitors to the Almighty wealthy purchase supplies in order to fund the war.

Will this war look anything like the civil war? Do you feel that wealth will win do to their ability to buy better weapons? Will grit, the struggle for equality and the thinking poor be able to win the war? Who will win Stamos?

Should Gingrich lead the Wealthy? He wants to jail single, unwed mothers' and to put their kids in massive state run facilities. Will these children be used for tests or forced to the front lines to fight against their mothers ?

American wealthy and the Republicans on one side. so we have wealthy corporations and Republican government reps on one side! Can you please give the rest of us the short list on how to live so we may be able to join you Almighty wealthy ones?

Let me ask you Stamos, does wealth take away daily stresses of life? And what do you think about that poor citizen who has a tough time paying his or her excise taxes? They have already doubled them due to the fact that this poor American cannot afford the tax. And here is one for you Stamos, what should we do with the person in line at the food bank with a cell phone in their hands? Does this all depend on whether or not you have donated to this food bank? So maybe even if you do not give food for the poor you should have control over them? Is your thinking that if they have enough for a cell phone then they can afford food? And what about if the poor has a used car that they bought for $400, is this a complete violation that they have a car and a cell phone at the food bank?

Even though that the car is used to go to the hospital, of wait a minute Stamos. How can they afford to go to the hospital if they are poor? As Republicans we must straighten all of this out. As a Republican it is recommeneded that all food stamps are taken away and medicare is eliminated as well as social security. With the government savings we will buy a bulldozer to push the poor and dying from hunger and lack of medical into a mass grave. With the majority of savings we will give back to those nice, moral driven super wealthy individuals who don't give a shit for human rights nor equality issues, who don't care about polluting our air for profit and who believe that they have earned this money through hard work and that four year education that they want to use for justification for the 80-90 yrs of their life.

Those struggling wealthy people, now they will be able to restart the pouring of sand off the coast of Dubai in their attempt to build their perverted oasis! And yes the Christian Bible was just rewritten to exclude the parts that have stated that the wealthy have no place in heaven at the end of days. Hey, they paid for the new version!

Has anyone just noticed the three articles printed recently concerning the ability to live off of a $14,000 stippend? The today show had a similiar story.

Is corporate America behind this study and the stories? Is this the Republicans next argument? I bet next they will propose to raise the poverty level status!

So they will now state that anyone making under $10,000 is considered poor. This is the Republicans way of reinventing the middle class!! So if you make between $10,001 and $60,000 you can now consider yourself the middle class.

Corporations will now be able to lower salary rates. Minimum wage has to go down as workers are making too much an hour as a middle class citizen, studies show that they can live with less money. Besides As a wealthy corporate leader I want to spend the full year in Dubai instead of the current 11 months that I spend their now. It is only fair for I am wealthy.

So for XMAS Matt lauer from the Today show feels that you can live with $14,000 a year. He may make a million plus a year but he is worthy, he is entitled, he spends one hour a day on TV , FIVE days a week mind you, he is considered "accomplished"! Matt spends mor a year on scarfs and ties! He spends more on lotion per year for his non stressed unwrinkled face and super soft hands. This guy has it tough as he states ; Hey, I put the lotion on myself which I have to do everyday before I go on that one BRUTAL tiresome, hard working One hour that I am on TV.

I'm going to let you in on a little secret. If you don't want to be poor GET A FRUCKING JOB. Even now as I respond to your ignorant post I am making money and so are my employees. I don't owe you a penny and I would never hire you.

I have another little secret. If you don't feel like you are earning enough DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! Learn a new trade, go to college or work two jobs! Do something about it.

When is this petulant little boy with a grade school mind going to get it through his thick skull that nobody is listening to his blame game politics? Lynch, your entire existence revolves around blame. Heck, you’re still blaming your own victim for his murder.
The only reason that we have government jobs is because we need police and prison guards to protect us from criminals, etc. Today you takers think government is responsible for the success of the business community. That's insane! Government has taken on so many unnecessary roles that it has become a parasite on all taxpayers. A government job is booked on the expense side, it's a cost of operating the community, and the community picks up the tab for all government expenses, necessary and unnecessary. Get rid of the unnecessary! Government workers don't pay taxes; it's a misnomer to believe that they do. How can you pay taxes when it is tax dollars that pay you? That tax deduction on your pay stub just means that you were given fewer tax dollars.
For anyone with any brains, it is well known that taxing the millionaires and billionaires will NOT create the revenue necessary to pay our debt and all the social programs currently in place that are being abused by the likes of you and your x-con boyfriend. This means that the definition of "rich" will come down to encompass the middle class, the prosperous working people that keep you and your boyfriend fed. And no, male prostitution does not count as a legitimate "taxpaying" job.

Any knowledge of history shows that the middle class are the mainstay for a prosperous and stable nation. "Democracy" has little chance of taking hold in third world nations that have little if any real middle class. Further, when a tyrant seeks to take over, he has to eliminate the middle class. In both situations, the nation will then be comprised of the elite ruling class and the little people. The middle class is comprised of people who constitute a threat to the tyrant.

I also see the so-called middle class here as a threat to our spread the welfare community agitators view of Utopia where whatever the elites want and say goes unchallenged. The idea of calling someone making $200K rich and taxing them more heavily is consistent with an attempt to destroy or at least control the middle class.$200K for a family living in the area around Boston and New York City etc does not, by any stretch, constitute "rich" whereas someone making that same amount in Alabama or Mississippi is doing pretty good. But, does living pretty well constitute "richness" that must be redistributed to those like you who are disinclined to work and just continue living off the government teet?

The term "rich" is about as ambiguous as any that you spread the welfare takers throw around. It is and cannot be defined as "rich" is in the mind of the beholder. All can say Bill Gates and Warren Buffett are rich but it gets foggy when one starts talking about salaries made by "ordinary" people. So rich is not a good term to define relative wealth but is exceedingly good for your use in the class warfare effort.

So you know Matt Lauer's schedule and what his job consists of? I wouldn't want his job. No family time. No personal time. No privacy.

In his 30+ year career he worked a hundred hours a week most of them unpaid behind the scenes at local new stations across the country. He went to college and took risks to find a job.

Sounds like you are jealous. You do not understand that people "pay their dues" and work hard early on for a comfortable work lifestyle later on in life. They sacrifice and suffer.

If you don't like what you are doing, change it! Anyone can do it.

I've been to Dubai for business. It's home of the worlds tallest building. You see they believe in something you can't begin to fathom, it's called hard WORK.

Lynch, Matt Lauer is on your team. Like you, he's a leftist Political Hack & Liar...... He even pushed the leftist lie that Bush made up bogus WMD charges against Saddam Hussein that led to war.

Unfortunately like you, Lauer forgot that we live in the age of the Internet where lies can be fact-checked in a number of seconds.

Just like you Lynch, Matt Lauer is a useful idiot, a left wing shill, so to speak! He is Nobama's puppet and mouthpiece and got his ass kicked.

The folks on Today were hard workers who worked the land that they had...grew their own food..etc. Hard work is the only way out of the hole. Most people on assistance today are third, fourth generation welfare collectors...they know the drill...Hard work my friend..hard work is the only way out...get a job...get two get three...just go to work and stop expecting us to pay your way. YOU are not entitled to my money...you are a faker and a liar.

Then what is the problem? If your only making $10K a year then you need to change your career.

So, you are stating that our Firefighters, City workers and DPW workers are all parasites living on tax money? Explain yourself Mrs. Stamos.

I think I can field this one. YES. Let me try to put this in terms you might understand. If you take a dollar out of your mom's cookie jar and later return one you are not making money. Here's the Nutcracker for the season. If a police officer does try to open a bar or a fire fighter wants to work part time as an electrician stupid baby's complain that it's a conflict of interest. So basically public workers get paid by your and my tax dollar and then pay it back to take again later.

No, and here’s your explanation; the abbreviation "etc" stands for et cetera, a Latin expression meaning "and other things" or "and so on".

With this class warfare it's comforting to know we have a champion of the common man in the Whitehouse who could never be bought by the mega-corporations like those evil Republicans.

Now I understand why a corrupt officer will falsify reports to cover his or her own ass! How can the rest of us get these free jobs? If we score 100 on the civil service exam can we get the job? So there are only a few open spots? But their are hundreds inline for these jobs! What do the rest get that cannot get in these positions? Welfare and food stamps?

Here you go!

WORKING poor, the statistic tells you that in it's title!! Idiot!

You ought to be counting your blessings.

Given the Right's recent lurch toward Ayn Rand-style Objectivism, it seems that an intelligent journalist would put the following facts together:

1) 80% of Americans own only 7% of America's wealth.

2) The new mainstream in conservatism maintains that the poor are only poor because of laziness and lack of initiative.

It's not exactly a leap in logic to point out that mainstream conservatism now maintains that 80% of Americans are simply ungrateful, lazy bastards who need tough love to do better.

Here's a handy chart to see how the 1% have taken all the value generated by increased productivity, for you constant meatheads, that means WORKING MORE, GENERATING MORE and being paid LESS!
