The class warfare nonsense is truly for the ignorant. No wonder so many on the left fall for it so easily. Why don't you go occupy something? Maybe they'll give you more stuff. Why are you entitled to someone else's property?

And for the record, it wasn't a Republican that: told us under his plan electricity prices would necessarily skyrocket, told us if we checked the air in our tires it would make up for high gas prices, told us he wanted gas prices to rise but not too quickly because he wanted us to get used to it gradually, dined on $100 kobe steaks in between $34,500 per plate fundraisers complete with $200 bottles of wine where the plight of the "working class" was discussed, bragged he'd raise $1 billion to get re-elected, cozied up to Immelt and Buffett and named multiple tax cheats to his cabinet, hired a kid who had never had a job to manage GM and Chrysler after he used the Treasury Department to purchase both, etc.

Who's in with the fat cats now?

I still ask...before you were on active duty who did you ask for a job? Did you go to your local homeless shelter and ask the first person you found what openings he or she had? Or did you go out, find someone that had more than you did, and see if they had an opening you could fill? I know I know...stop inserting facts and logic into rants against the rich. Because we all must just occupy stuff. Occupy occupy occupy. It's those evil rich and George Bush you know.

By the way...what of yours do I get to have? I hear you have a cool car so I'll take that for starters. You can post a pic of your g/f as well and I'll have her too okay. Thanks.

Hey I got an idea. Let's occupy a place that hands out photo ID's! That way we can ensure they don't give us stuff (photo ID's) while saying we support the idea of no ID required to cast a vote AND we can deny the poor the photo ID they need to: travel by train or air, purchase over the counter medications (in some states), open bank accounts, apply for credit, obtain jobs, etc. Occupy occupy occupy!!!!!!!! Gimme gimme gimme!!!!!!!! It's all about me, me, me, me, me!!!!!!!! After we occupy we can go on our Facebook and tell everyone to check for my tweets where I illogically prop up Obama by running him against Bush in 2012. Look at how oppressed I am on my Facebook and Twitter oh poor poor me being kept down by mean old Bush and the GOP. Democrats haven't controlled Congress since 2010 after all and haven't had the White House since...oh wait, ummmm. Well anyway, sympathize with my plight as I cruise around in my tricked out import, techno blasting, en route somewhere to by a coffee or juice for $6.50 and spending $4.27 a gallon to do it. This is my plight don't you get that! You must give me stuff to ease my pain and agony! It's all Bush's fault.

Corporate profits have an inverse relationship with unemployment - AKA, while unemployment has been high, corporate profits have skyrocketed to record highs. The Government responds to increasing bankruptcy rates by essentially legalizing mortgage fraud by the banks. No class warfare? Sure about that. Now of course, the Dems are growing increasingly guilty of this too... so basically - both of our parties are growing increasingly Right Wing. Not right wing in the classical Conservative sense - Right Wing in the bible thumping neo-con chickenhawk way.

Now for your occupy comment - first off, you do realize there were a fair number of libertarians and independents in the mix (who hate government sanctioning of corporate corruption). And secondly, why is it someone occupies the front steps of a bank, that's "socialism", yet if we occupy a foreign country that's a "strong defense"?

I still ask...before you were on active duty who did you ask for a job? Did you go to your local homeless shelter and ask the first person you found what openings he or she had?

Why is it every service member you see here that doesn't agree with you accuse of either being lazy, unemployed, a faker, or a combination of such? Not all service members are crazy you know...

That brings up another thing doesn't it...we need an oligarchy of people that run for office with aspirations to "move up". SIlly Cheney didn't get it even though he held dozens of executive branch positions before he was VP. We need lifetime politicians climbing from one office to another career style promising us stuff. Where's my Ferrari?[/QUOTE]


Cheney didn't want to become President. He never did, he was content being the neighborhood bully

The thing is some of those people never vote. Who cares who is in office as long as i sit here and collect unemployment. It is different if you have a seasonal job and cannot get a job anywhere else. Case by case. Just like that retarded b%^*& that won the lottery and was still on food stamps b/c she had 2 houses that she needed to pay off? Come on really?
Lots of people don't vote because they have never seen anyone in their family vote, and were never encouraged to vote by their family. This is based on lots of reasons, but the most important is the fact that lots of Americans don't have a REASON to vote. The obvious answer is to make Voting Compulsory, and to add the choices of "NONE OF THE ABOVE"; "I DON'T CARE"; and "INCUMBENT". The last one would allow the Incumbent to run to retain his office while his Party fields another person in a situation where the Incumbent's party has become disillusioned with the Incumbent. The voters get to make the ultimate choice.
