We all have a tendency to filter out what we don't want to hear. I believe it's called cognitive dissonance.
But, I commend you Mike, that you give no ground. No battle too small for you to fight, no point too small for you to dispute. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mdixon.6569@...> wrote : I don't hear about often.I might if I read a lot of leftist BS.

You often hear about the sense of entitlement that develops in the ultra rich. An attitude where they feel a disdain for their fellow man. Manifests in things like poor tips, rudeness, not paying bills, or paying late. But as was mentioned earlier, that may be a pitfall many would fall into. I think you have to work hard to stay real, every day. (-: ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <noozguru@...> wrote : What about the middle class?

If they put it in a bank, the bank uses it to loan to people, companies, cities, states and nations who in turn pays people with it for services, products and pensions. The money works!

ROTFL! Mike, you DO realize building products like that don't put a lot of people to work? Much if it is custom built with small crews. Stop celebrating the rich screwing you over. I guess you think it feels good? A middle class with the ability to spend would way outweigh the rich ability to put people to work.

Doyou think this is fair or right? Billionairism is mental disease called greed. And don't tell me they're the jobs creators. It's small businesses that are the jobs creators. The big companies buy up the small ones and lay people off. Acquisitions are a bad business fad. Corporations should be limited in size and lifespan. And taxes should increase of the wealthy to discourage wealth accumulation and contracting billionairism. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/global-wealth-inequality_56991defe4b0ce4964242e09http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/global-wealth-inequality_56991defe4b0ce4964242e09 http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/global-wealth-inequality_56991defe4b0ce4964242e09
