One of the reasons I feel there is something to astrology is that I see
people being dealt a poor hand regardless of how hard or smart they
work. It seems transits and planetary periods do indeed play a role in
life and our vaunted "scientists" don't understand it yet. I've also
seen charts of immensely successful people who if they were restaurant
dishwashers would have wound up rich.
When it comes to life 1+1 does not always equal 2.

That's your perception. Was it Aldus Huxley that said "clean the
windows of perception"? Most conservatives believe in an old fashioned
work ethic.Work hard, but also work smart. Stop looking outside to
blame your lack of success on others but look at what you can do to
improve yourself and how you are perceived by others. I was just
watching an episode on E:60 about JJ Watt on YouTube. That is what I'm
talking about. You get out of life what you put into it. Some people
are born into crappy circumstances, but it's their own karma that put
them there. Stop whining and do something positive to change your
circumstances and stop blaming others for your problems and expecting
others to make things better for you. Victim-hood is a mentality that
is cultivated and can be hard to shake.Moses lead the Israelites
around the wilderness for forty years, until the slave mentality died
out and before they entered the promised land.

Remember China's "hardliners" of the 1980s? That's what American
conservatives sound like in 2015. :-D

Some people need to work a little harder at different things to make
the other hard work they do pay off. Going to a daily job and
exhibiting a crappy attitude or showing up late or having excessive
no shows, bad appearance, poor communication skills,(need I go on?)
can affect the whole outcome. You get out of life what you put into
it. Isn't that what self improvement is all about? Starting point *a*
ending with *z*. Are you saying that your *well heeled individuals*
didn't deserve what they accomplished? WTF is karma?

Should a person with no more ability to flip a burger earn as much as
a brain surgeon? It could happen, but they better have something to
offer that is in high demand. I can honestly say that I've earned
everything I've got. Had I been more ambitious,I could have had more

You are assuming that hard work equals reward commensurate with
effort exerted. Not so. It would be so simple if that were the case.
Many, many people literally work their asses off and have no home,
very little food to eat and live in rags. The world does not work
like how you think it works. There is inequality with regard to race,
gender and class that takes its toll on millions of people. I have
known a number of well-heeled individuals who like to recline back in
their easy chairs, glance around at their paneled, ! ornate living
rooms while sipping 25 year old tawny port and smugly assert that if
everyone was just willing to work hard they could enjoy the
advantages that they enjoy. Bullshit.

Capitalism promotes greed and inequality. Socialism provides equality
and equal opportunity. How's that inequality workin' out for ya?

The problem with capitalism is that sooner or later you run out
of other people's money too. Then everybody is broke. What's
your point?

What's happening is that the dems are freaked by the traction
Bernie Sanders is getting. He's also popular with millennials
who could swing the vote. I also have a theory Sanders is the
reason Trump jumped into the race. So it could be an election
of democratic socialism vs corporatism. Thing is, the US needs
some socialism to balance things. All corporatists care about
is making lots and lots of money and the public be damned.
I've listened to Sanders on Thom Hartmann's show for years and
he is a very reasonable person so it won't be the new Soviet
Union by a any means. Hillary is too "status quo" with lots of
skeletons in her closet.

We asked three psychics to spoil the next 16 months for us
(for entertainment purposes only, of course).
