Random, accidental.
People who do well - and you don’t know anything about me, btw - are just winners in the great lottery then. Or maybe they stole from the poor.
I don’t blame the poor. You evidently blame those not poor, though.
Go back to your Marx primers and leave good people alone. You’re more annoying and puerile than sentient, and it insults me to be in the same conversation with such a one-cell.
“People who do well - and you don’t know anything about me, btw”
You have revealed quite a bit. In my 6.3 decades of watching this show, I have learned to size people up.
“are just winners in the great lottery then. Or maybe they stole from the poor.”
I have said nothing of the kind, nor do I think that. I respect hard work. What you don’t understand is that for many people, great effort results only in failure, with no moral transgression on the part of the individual involved.
“I don’t blame the poor.”
Buncombe. You sit in arrogant judgment of people who have failed in life, or are currently in a state of failure, and obnoxiously deny that they tried just as hard as you.
“You evidently blame those not poor, though.”
Now you’re just making things up. Shame on you.
I don’t blame you for any good things that have happened to you, or for any achievements you worked hard for, or any kind of success.
I do blame you for your attitude toward those who might be termed “poor but honest.” You insist that they could achieve the same level of success as yourself (appx.) if they only tried, and the reason they don’t try is that they are morally depraved.
You never answered my question: are you a woman?
“Go back to your Marx primers and leave good people alone.”
You failed to carry on a discussion of a philosophical and economic nature without resort to insult, and you think you’re good people?
I won’t make that judgment, but your conduct in this thread has not been up to the standards one hopes for.
“You’re more annoying and puerile than sentient, and it insults me to be in the same conversation with such a one-cell.”
Yes, insult my intelligence, because I’m so insecure about that.
