Me too. It’s easily explained. Some of us are doing okay, but clearly many aren’t. If you can’t see this, you’re blind.I know you only want the 1% enjoying life in America. I guess I’m different.I’d rather have the 1% give up a little of their money, than 90% of Americans suffering. Why do you want the poor and middle class suffering and the extreme wealthy doing great? Have you been duped?No. The 1% might suffer. Are you a one percenter?
I am evidently a 1 percenter based on what I have read, but even when I wasn't, I would have never been in favor or taking their money. It is just flat out wrong.
There is also a significant difference between being a one percenter and a 10+ millionaire.
The wealthy being wealthy has nothing to do with the poor being poor. I wouldn't consider my family extremely wealthy, but we are in the top 1% and I don't take money from the poor to make money. If we have to pay a 70% tax to help people who have chosen not to help themsevles, why would I continue to strive to make good money? I may as well work less hours and take it easy a bit and take a paycut. Lets also get real. Raising taxes on the wealthy will not make the less wealthy wealthier. It doesn't work that way.
Did you see the clip showing Warren being confronted by a father about her free college nonsense? The father said he saved and sacrficed to send his daughter to college while his neighbor bought new cars and the like. The father asked if he would get a refund and she said "of course not". Democrats foster irresponsibility every chance they get.
You are the one that has been duped.
I am not in the 1% and I am "enjoying life". How do you explain that? So you don't think anyone in the middle class in America is "enjoying life"?
How else would you explain Donnie’s winning? Or, Bernie’s appeal. Americans are feed up with our scam of a government.
