    No need to steal it, reality belongs to us all, and it is how each individual one of us deal with it that makes or breaks our individual societies as well as all societies combined.

    LOL. So true. This probably weighs in as Individual's best post. Truth be told ; getting "hired" as a 47% 'er can be very profitable. Some say one can "earn" close to $40k yearly plus benefits by just being a good democrat and taking advantage of every social service that the regime has to "offer" the folks.

    You are certainly a cynical sucker--aren't 'ya? Your disdain for the shrinking middle class is the classic right-wing stance against regular folks just trying to get by in a world that is so lop-sided economically, that I don't doubt that "the chickens will come home to roost" one day for those you revere. You think this corporate-owned society gives a fair shake for those who WANT jobs, but find that there aren't any to get?? You people--yeah--I said YOU PEOPLE--love the cocksuckers that make 20 million a year while regular people lose their homes, jobs, security, dignity in this country and you and those like you, continue to genuflect before the corrupt and greedy. You piss me off.

    And to add: i'm against the ACA. The insurance companies are benefitting by people getting subsidies from the government to pay for it. Who gets the money? The insurance companies. They need to be gone and a single pay system is needed. You know--like the civilized countries, such as Denmark or France. And some not so civilized. Like Mexico.

    I do favor the man who makes more than welfare and has actually worked a day in his life and built it up to a million dollar business. They are the true Americans who took the plunge to fulfill their dream. Not sit on their ass and wait for "handouts".

    The corporations care more than the muslim HNIC barry. If they cant keep a work force because its easier to sit on you're ass and collect osamas shit how can they help? They are the ones who donate large sums of $$ to many organizations. Yeah its a write off, But at least they sent something except "hope" and lies.

    If they cant sell their product, They will make 0$$ and shit rolls down hill. They cant add or help at this point when the muslim has fucked everything up with osamascare. If those 'regular' people would get off their ass and get a JOB instead of paperwork on assistance and welfare the country might make a change for the better.
    You were taught well by the poor and trash to blame the motivated wealthy, Im glad its not working out for you. Im glad I piss you off, Hope it keeps going for many years to come.

    Dude, our government can't even get a website right, and you expect them to be able to pull off a single payer system?

    America is broken, Scratcho, and our government is incapable of fixing it.

    A democratic government is supposed to consist of their society's representatives.

    TO POST 225-------You, pal---(edit). CREATE JOBS AND PEOPLE WILL WORK. Do you get it?? And you're still calling O a muslim? I don't know why I even bother with those that are suck-asses to the super rich.

    And me? I started working at 14 after school and on weekends at a service station. I have thrown chain on a drilling rig. Know what that is. Installed auto parts in a factory. Worked in a Bank. Surveyed. Been a roofing contractor for years and take care of myself, thank you. Have been in 6 unions and have seen first hand how non-union workers are treated. You people stick up for the ones that need it least. (edit).

    Yes , this country is fucked. It's so out of balance that maybe it shouldn't be fixed with the same old parameters that have now that has proven VERY BAD for the regular citizens and extremely good/lucrative for the 1%.

    The problem is, Scratcho, that so many "regular citizens" have a much different idea of how to fix it than you. There is no 99%. We are much more divided than that. Honestly, I'd be fighting you and those like you just as hard as I would fight the 1%

    Just sayin scratch , the collectivist welfare state has stripped folks of their work ethic. It seemingly has become a better deal not to go to work for many. Especially the young ones left skilless with liberal arts degrees and student loans. Yes, and now the "ACA" is upon us. Anothe reason for the younger ones to be disenfranchised. Sure , we always knew jr. bush and those evil kochsuckers were at the bottom of the "screw the little guy" conspiracy. Really?

    I apologize for getting all het up. It just twists my tail that people have no sense of history regarding how workers have been treated , particularly in the last century when trying to protect themselves from the excesses of the greedy. Think this is the first time the bankers and corporate america has fucked the middle class. Check out 1833 for a starting point and work on up from there. It continues ,only without the goons to bloody people up that want fairness from those who have no idea of it.

    Fairness means many different things to many different people, Scratcho. No one side or ideology has a monopoly on it.

    Fairness to me is (within this capitalist system) is a strong working middle class. The more money the middle class earns, the more they spend. The more they spend, the products they buy and the money spent for them would allow even more products to be made and sold. I don't give a shit if a guy who has the guts and moxie to start a business and make a few million dollars. But I don't think a person should make 20 -30 million dollars while paying those who make/sell those products cheap wages. This 'NEW WORLD ORDER' bullshit is killing this country. Except for those that own the legislators.

    I'm right there with you when it comes to a strong middle class, but I don't think wage controls like those I think you have in mind are the answer.

    There is far more than some "new world order" killing this country, Scratcho.

    I call them as I STILL see them and barry is still a POS.

    Seems you don't get it from all the jobs and bouncing around you have done. 6 unions, The most worthless and I want, I want I want more group(s). There is part of you're problem, Too many think they need $25 an hour to put 'NUT ON BOLT'. Lack of education so you pay the union to go stick their hands out for you.

    But people like you are the reason the country sits where it sits. Blame big $$ cause you cant make $$ on you're own. Or you get a job and stick you're hand out after you pay you're union dues for more $$ an hour.

    Suck asses to super rich? You seem butt hurt you are not one of them. Maybe find a 'stable' job and stay there a bit and work you're way up, Or do you want to be CEO and work down? Better yet, After reading you're replies, You just want the cash $$ handout because others worked for it and you cant seem to make it in any field.

    I'm 74 man. Those jobs were when I was young. Let me say this: I don't usually call people names and get all excited. Occasionally I do. and when I do --I almost feel that those with whom I have argued have won. So, excuse me please. But don't think that I haven't seen and been in this society when it was fair. it's twisted out of shape beyond anything i have seen from Roosevelt to Obama. he's a big disappointment to me, but for differant reasons than some of you have. Have a nice day. I'm going back to "the old west".


    To add: I've never given any of you a red ball. I DO respect your right to give opinions--what the hell. At least we can still express ourselves here. i don't agree-----but. So it goes.

    Being 74, You are getting the shit end of the stick and its out of anyone's hands except the corrupt administration. Yes, Its so far backward and upside down which way is up?

    The old west lol, That would cure a lot of the petty bullcrap problems we do have today. Too bad we couldn't go back or use that era's mentality.

    Opinions are like assholes, We all have them and like you said, At least we can, For the most part, Express it here. To each their own, That's the beauty of it.

    Being 74 , Scratch , your worries should be minimal.. You don't have to get involved with obyscare. You have earned your medicare. You are fortunate. I have talked with many people , much younger , wishing they were 65 to avoid this ordeal. If you are 74 and can still roof ; you should be able to tolerate sun , sex and sand and retirement ; why not?

    Six people signed up for obyscare during the first week. One month ago. The realization is now hitting home. Once again , the middle class is screwed. Besides failure to launch ; this becomes not only financial revenue sharing but becomes "health" sharing as well. Young , healthy folks simply have ignored the dysfunctional program. "Bad" health risks are flocking to medicare. ANOTHER FAIL FOR OBY.
