I didn't know whether or not to laugh at this or think it was going to be a new talking point for the insane left.

Either way I thought it was worth bringing up since it's generating a lot of attention amongst the online left today.

"You see, the owners? They own things. They may own a business. They may own a house. They may own a very big business, very big house, an airplane, many cars or gasp... even more than one house. You see, "the owners" have successfully conned each and every one of you into envying your neighbor and keeping you divided for the sake of holding on to what they own."

Of course, "Community Organizer" Obama owns a mansion in Chicago.

All the Hollywood celebrities with the loudest mouths own many things.

Leftie Ted Turner owns Montana.

Their Daddy Warbuck's, George Soros, besides owning their souls, is a huge owner of material goods.

As usual, their hypocrisy is only outdone by their lack of integrity.

The O’ners over at the DUmpster are calling us “owners” now?

[Dr. Thorne]

I own a large amount of debt, a few NY Yankees T-shirts and a couple Christmas CDs.

If they don't like my ownership of these things, they can have the debt. All of it. No charge.

[Cyber Liberty]

Owning stuff is the true American Dream. Let these fools go out and attempt to demean “Owners.”

Ohhhhh! How cute they are!!! Back in the "OLD DAYS" the communists would call that THE BOURGEOIS. Guess being "progressives" now they gotta keep things fresh hence - THE OWNERS.

There will be rivers of blood.

Count on it. The Left knows the game it's playing and somehow they think they can win this time.

The owners and the thieves.

“The Owners” is supposed to be a negative term in America?

Hell that’s what this country and everyone who’s come here had a dream to be. The promise of America is that you too can own: a house, your own business, property, etc.

Just because that outcome isn’t guaranteed or underwritten by those who successfully do it, doesn’t mean someone stole it from someone else. There are plenty of our ancestors (and mostly white european ones) who were not that successful at it, but they didn’t bitch that government wasn’t taking enough from those that made it. (Well the lefties always did, I’m not counting them.)

And they are the pwned!

[Upstate NY Guy]

That's right. The founders called it: the pursuit of happiness.

The right to acquire private property is key to the generation on wealth.

America needs “owners” so the renters will know who to make the check out to.

[Mr. Jeeves]

"As long as the Owners divide the rest of us into DUers and Freepers, and let us battle it out endlessly, they still screw us all over."

There is truth here, but it's crucial to understand who the "owners" really are. They certainly aren't the small business owners DU and Obama want to demonize...

[Upstate NY Guy]

of wealth.

Well, I think the problem is a significant part of our population (and the media) are at war with the American Dream. They don't like it. They don't want you to have it. They oppose Christianity. They curse George Washington. They spit on the Constitution. And they want to brainwash your children.

There's a line in an old Nazi play: "When I hear the word 'culture', that's when I reach for my revolver."

Well, the concept of 'ownership' makes these people think about shooting you and your family.

Remember this when some acorn hack is asking you census questions... Do you rent or own...

[Vendome]

I swear on it Ur Owner!

[EternalVigilance]

Their fellow communist forebears simply called us the “bourgeois.” So they knew who to kill or imprison in order to steal their stuff.

[MestaMachine]

I’m just spewchless...
Do they rent their computers?

[Secret Agent Man]

I agree. It’s all based on flawed assumptions of anyone who has anything has gotten it in a underhanded manner, they had special breaks, that wealth is a fixed pie that if you get a bigger piece that means you’ve taken that part away from someone else (zero sum economy).

You can thank liberal teachers and public schools for promoting racism and garbage philosophies and crappy economic ideas that aren’t true.
