I saw a stat that showed the average income gap between the richest and poorest Americans was around $158K under Bush but now it's around $172K under Obama.
Yeah, he is really helping out the poor.....not.
Have you ever heard the term "too big to prosecute"?No, the 1% do not need trillions upon trillions of dollars in offshore tax shelters because of the costs of Obamacare. They have trillions in untaxable accounts because they don't give a fuck about you or anyone else but the shareholders in their company.
Do the GOP monkeys on this board who try to defend the 1% actually think that the 1% care about you? They don't. Anyone rich enough to be in the 1% will never read internet messageboards or care about the people who write on them. So why defend the 1% when the 1% will never defend you?
They do not have to care about us. And yes we know they don't.
The thing that you don't understand (one of many things)is that wealth is NOT finite. Just because they have it and they are keeping it does not mean that there isn't any for you. If you want wealth they can't stop you from achieving it. Only you and possibly government interference is stopping you.
Yes, the 1% have to care about us because We the People are their customers and victims. Have you ever heard the term "too big to prosecute"? It came from HSBC confessing to laundering billions for terrorists who are killing Americans. HSBC could not be prosecuted nor could the corporate executives be put in jail because bringing down Europe's largest bank would have crippled the global economy. So HSBC paid a small fine equal to about 2-months' revenue and went right back to work.
Do the families of the American soldiers who were killed by weapons bought by terrorists with money laundered through HSBC ever get that kind of preferential treatment?
Keep defending the 1% who don't care about you. One day, you'll be rich like them. Oh, wait. No, you won't.

No, he's not helping out the poor. That's why Republicans should love him.
I disagree, it is equality of opportunity, obviously I'm not going to list every type there is. Equality if opportunity would by definition be free of descrimination.
Certain types of discrimination yes, but not all.
Opportunity will always be based on money because providing opportunity to children will always be valued by parents.

Yeah, those poor people get all the breaks. Look at those thousands of homeless Vietnam veterans with undiagnosed, untreated PTSD. The VA said there's another 20k OEF/OIF vets on the streets now. They're just lazy moochers who don't want to pull themselves up by their own bootstraps.
Take out your guns, Republicans, and kill yourselves.

It's an election year and we will be hearing a lot if bull shit. No bigger pile of crap than "income equality" or lack thereof.
While we should have equality of opportunity (and we do), no one has a right to equality of outcome. The outcome of your opportunity is entirely up to you.
This whole issue is nothing but "spreading the wealth around" rehashed. Obama and the democrats didn't do anything about income equality in the first 5 years, in fact the gap has gotten worse, so they think that if they call it something else they can repackage it and sell it to the sheeple again and they will buy it. They have no real plan to do anything about it but campaign on it.
Equality of opportunity - free capitalist society
Equality of outcome - oppressive socialist society

Unless you're a person who has a group of lobbyists in your corner and several politicians in your pocket, I would say that statement is utter bullshit.
I am not in the 1% but I'm in the upper middle class. Between my wife and I we are close to the $250k range that the left wants to pay for the parasites who vote for them. I started out with absolutely nothing. I grew up in the lower income bracket, and I barely graduated high school. Then I decided if I was going to have any kind if life I had better get my shit together. Since I had no money, I joined the navy to get money for college. When I got out I didn't waste time, I studied and studied hard. I took advantage of the opportunities that came my way and while I'm not the Super Rich, I have all the money I need.
I had other opportunities and had I taken them I could have doubled my income. I chose not to and because I'm a rational thinking adult, I don't envy those who took the opportunity and did the extra work.
If you not not have wealth, look in the mirror for the cause of your problems.
Blah blah, Blah blah! Idiotic Liberal talking point, mindless nonsense! Lunatic left wing nut rant after rant after rant. Shut down brain and let mouth ramble. Blah blah yada yada yada!
Go fuck yourselves, GOP. Take out your guns and kill yourselves.
