Why is it that decision affecting average Americans are always the super rich. They don't worry about health care problems, they have never worried if their lids will have lunch money, they don't know what it is like to not have money for food the next day, they have never been cold because they couldn't pay the heating bills, they always had warm clothing, They never had to budget for a pair of shoes, They never had to not see a doctor because there was no money to pay the bill. Folks, most of America has experienced these problems at one time or another and yet WE HAVE PEOPLE WHO KNOW NOTHING OF THESE PROBLEMS MAKING THOSE DECISIONS THAT AFFECT US ALL !!!

A great job offer. Go to work for us. Company is bankrupt. Job is open as previous employee left due to repeated salary checks bouncing and health insurance lapsed due to the insurance company was also paid with bouncing checks. NOT ALL OF US- I will never AGAIN work for a failure. Last time after atty bills, I was short 50,000. |

Very wealthy people in this country often started out poor. I don't think anyone ever says to their children, "Get a decent education and then get a job and make a success of your life but for God's sake, don't get rich." It happens to those who work longer and take risks way often here in this country. I have heard some very interesting life stories since I have moved here. People with a little extra money, or a lot, aren't cold because they saved something of every paycheck and didn't spend their money on things that poor people did. Warm clothing? Sometimes they wore their old clothes while "poor" people bought new. Ditto. Ditto. Ditto. And...I have observed this; Rich people often live and spend like they are poor and poor people often live and spend like they are rich. |

I truly believe hard work pays off in life, and I don't feel those that accomplish so much through hard work should be discounted by saying they only have that because their parents were wealthy...

"A score of 1 means they inherited everything. A score of 10 means they grew up poor and overcame "significant obstacles."" Only 9s and 10s count because the rest had middle to upper class parents who could/did help. So...we have out of 400 billionaires, 98 or 1/4 are actually "self made with no help". And did you notice the continued propaganda? Who's picture do they use? Oprah...black and a woman. I'd like to ask you a question...where are the VERY wealthy? The world leaders? "Forbes’s rich list doesn’t include members of Royal families or dictators who hold their wealth through a position of power, or who control the riches of their country. In this way, the real people pulling the strings are able to work in absolute secrecy without any media attention at all (unless it is carefully-constructed positive propaganda, like this article on the philanthropy of the Rothschilds, of course). Forbes’s policy to exclude heads of state from the rich list explains why the Queen of England is absent, although nobody has the slightest idea of her wealth in any case: her shareholdings remain hidden behind Bank of England Nominee accounts. As the Guardian newspaper reported in May 2002: ‘The reason for the wild variations in valuations of her private wealth can be pinned on the secrecy over her portfolio of share investments…Her subjects have no way of knowing through a public register of interests where she, as their head of state, chooses to invest her money. Unlike [British politicians and Lords], the Queen does not have to annually declare her interests and as a result her subjects cannot question her or know about potential conflicts of interests…’ The same can be said for the Rothschilds and Rockerfellers, whose European forebears were richer than any Royal family at the time. The families are believed to have set up and own the Federal Reserve (G Edward Griffin’s The Creature From Jekyll Island and this research by journalist Dean Henderson are recommended reading if you want to get deeper into this topic). Could this be why the families, whose power in manipulating global affairs for the past few hundred years cannot be underestimated, are protected by Forbes’s ‘don’t even go there’ policy? Retired management consultant Gaylon Ross Sr, author of Who’s Who of the Global Elite, was apparently told in 1998 that the combined wealth of the Rockefeller family was approx $11 trillion and the Rothschilds $100 trillion…what might that figure have reached 17 years later? One can hardly begin to imagine, but maybe money isn’t the most important thing to your average trillionaire, anyway…" |

Maybe someone will be able to point out a time when it was any different.
Parroting, mirroring or amplifying without substance or knowledge is always a problem! |

Trump, for instance, is already campaigning for election in 2020 even though he and his Administration have made a thorough mess of things in less than two months. We do have a new kind of Pope but the old kind of Pope will probably show up again soon as this one leaves that position. |
