I don’t think they hate it at all. Look where all the prosperity in this country is centered - Washington, DC! They control the joint. If they hated prosperity, it would look like Port-au-Price or Detroit. Instead, it looks like Shanghai! What does that tell you?
Actually, what they hate is that you did it without their permission. And what they hate more is that you don't need them.
They are dedicated to creating a system in which they are important, where you have to have their permission, defer to their judgement, and where they matter without actually having to do the things you had to do to create the things you create and build the things you build.
In the system they impose they control industries they never created and never invested in. They take control of lands and businesses without having bought or built or earned any of it.
They accuse the rest of the world of being driven by greed. But demanding control of what you never built is the very definition of greed.
To them, it’s all luck and all hype, not hard work behind the scenes and they don’t get it that it takes time, not just the right person.
Most of the fools don’t understand, that they are the very types that would not survive such a society.
There is no way a celebrity/actress would be making as much as they do and there is no way that in the past, a celebrity would be able to consult a head of state publicly.
Look at China; their elite are the business tycoons, the scientists, the engineers, the computer programmers, and such, while entertainers are reportedly used as playthings (in the literal sense) and more patronized than well regarded.
You don’t hear celebrates mouthing off about the Chinese government and trying to tell the President how to run the country. They would get shot, which I think is a nice approach.
In the US, we need to drill it into the heads of the young that luck is a part of success, but not the bulk of it. Luck is only a minor part, the rest is inspiration and legwork. Very little is luck and hype.
It’s also the definition of freeloading.
You said it....I have always said that Communism is truly the most hardcore capitalism the world has seen, by perverting what people create to be sold to willing buyers...to the Nomenkaltura who use the force of Government (laws, regulations, taxes, military, police and crony contacts and deals) to tilt the table for their own enrichment.
Warren produces nothing, but she sells free stuff for votes and personal wealth for herself. It’s the coward’s shortcut that lives on the backs of the productive to redistribute those monies to a fake “ deserving” person whom Paul can always vote for as Peter will be robbed, and it’s done legally.
Fauxcohontas is the ultimate crony Commie jackhole.
Yeppers. Capitalism is used by both individuals and collectivists. It’s a choice of either allowing individual, free enterprise capitalism for all or state-controlled or oligarchical-controlled capitalism for the few.
Right collectivism only benefits the rich and the poor while the middle takes up the... until all of us are broke except that 1%.
And this is what you see happening to America - the rich creating a conversion process from free enterprise capitalism to state-controlled while using the poor as a straw man and at the same time imposing progressive taxation and the devaluation of the currency by taking us off the gold and silver standards plus printing money like there’s no tomorrow.
The left wants to limit growth so people will limit the birth rate, also all profits need to be funneled to the government for theft by fascist leaders within the party.
Sociopath fascists now run most of our government, that’s why we see death panels at the VA, and in ObamaCare.
The death panels will limit treatment for conservatives....Our country and the democrat party have lost it’s soul...
It’s harder to control prosperous people, so naturally progressive control freaks hat prosperity.
McCarthy was 95% right.
progressive control freaks hate prosperity.
