51% America Makes Less Than $30K

[Toddsterpatriot]

The wealthy now control the US, it doesn't matter who the President is. The rest of us are peons in their utopia. The weathy are the ones who hire these contract "mercenaries", who hired the ones at Benghazi. It's never what it seems.

Wow! Your news meds aren't working, get them adjusted.

Welcome to capitalism, baby. Capitalists love cheap labor and there is no such thing as a middle-class in capitalism...

Yes, I wish we had Socialist utopia like Cuba, where if you earn one penny over $25 a day your tossed in a hell hole prison to rot.

Your inability to be rational is noted. Now try posting something accurate like something related to the dark side of capitalism. It has one, like it or not.

Those who refuse to see the downsides of capitalism are the most enthusiastic participants in it's eventual downfall. Anyone who thinks this voodoo will last forever without causing massive social upheaval are fooling themselves.

It's a house of cards, that stays together largely because people treat it like it's a real house. Lose the faith and down it goes. That's capitalism for ya.

Yeah these true believers need to ask themselves why so many are losing faith in our economic system rather than diverting the discussion to socialism as if we cannot have a mixture of both.

What's the matter, afraid to talk about the record of socialism and the trail of despair and poverty it leaves behind wherever it touches?


"The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries." - Winston Churchill

I have no issues discussing socialism but in your case the problem is not socialism, it's capitalism, which you seem to be unable to get your tiny mind around. The government isn't forcing people to work for 30k, it's all they can manage, in a capitalist system eh?

The problem is that many people have resigned themselves to continue in their own status. Opportunities are still available. Whether one has enough desire to seek out those opportunities and rise above his station in life is a personal choice. I firmly believe that were I to suddenly lose everything I have built up and accomplished, I possess enough ability to rise again from the ashes. It's mostly a matter of mindset.

Is that the hope or the change?

But don’t worry, we’re bringing in lots of immigrants who’ll be happy to work for less than even that.

So much for the Muslim Kenyan Socialist Atheist argument.

The founder of Home Depot was unemployed and decided to open a hardware store. The rest is history. And as he says, government regulations prevent anyone from again doing what he did.
The problem is government preventing people from prospering.

That is dogma, and pure crap.

And the highly exalted, great American "job creators" are more than happy to hire them.

Yeppers. Capitalists love cheap labor, as cheap as can be found, which is why they're here in the first place.

In capitalism at least there is always a latter to top, that latter has to be earned never given as it should be.
Too bad progressives...

Embrace the suck

Capitalism has raised up more people than all of the other socialist utopias, that you love so much, ie socialism, marxism, communism, combined throughout the annals of history.

The so-called ladder to the top is not anything even the hardest working, most responsible worker can count on, embrace that suck.

Vote for Hillary or Bernie baby.

Thanks to progressives/socialists...

The money of others always runs out..

If they were using the money of others these guys wouldn't be making just 30k...

Your own should always be earned, the do gooder mentality is fleeting at best.

Embrace the suck

What regulations make it harder to sell nails and 2x4s now? Did he only manage that because he could just shit in the stream behind the store and no one cared? Was it because he'd now have to provide health insurance, like everyone else who sells nails and 2x4s? There might be more regualtions but they are the same for all players. Play on...

And, why is that?

Indeed. Obama's Socialism is working. He is destroying the Middle Class. He is establishing his own wealthy group and the poor - a two-class system. The Obamas are firmly entrenched into the wealthy class and Hollywood elite.

The middle class created with the help of FDR policies. The middle class has been losing ground since at least Reagan's trickle down presidency. And he was the first prez that started the illegal alien amnesty plan, by the way, not Obama.

Na, the crap we are in is because of socialist programs. Do gooder mentality is fleeting at best.

Embrace the suck

And obama has encouraged illegal immigration.
When will Americans realize that both parties are out to screw us?

Mixed economies are common sense. Use capitalism for what's it's good at, and correct for what it's bad at.

Eric Garner's "crime" was reselling cigarettes. And he died because Big Brother called that capitalist action a crime.
