Rush Limbaugh was a sucess in radio before Bubba and The Sea Hag were in the national spotlight.
"Rush is a rich guy looking out for the rich."
The interests of the "little guy" and of the "rich" (as the poster called them) are one-and-the-same. Only to the class-envy-exploiting LEFT are these distinguishable.
"Little Guy" and "rich guy" aren't the distinguishing characteristics, anyway. "Private sector producers" versus "government class non-producers" would be a more accurate way to describe it. (Government class refers to government employees, bureaucrats, welfare recipients, unions, media, academia, special interest groups like homosexuals, feminists, etc.)
Vist the works of great conservatives like Ronald Reagan, Milton Friedman, George Gilder or Barry Goldwater, and you will understand conservatism. "Little guy" ain't in the nomenclature in the sense that you are using it here.
In fact, Rush himself has discussed at length the work from a few years back in which an author's research turned up that the "wealthy", the "rich," are actually not much different from you and me. They generally go to work every day, fight to keep their property out of the hands of government, take care of their autos to make them last, live in neighborhoods with other folks, etc. The "rich" are usually families who have two incomes, whose children work in the family business, and who save extensively. In fact, I think it was Gilder who noted that it is much more difficult to KEEP wealth than it is to GET wealth---while one generation squanders their parents' earnings, another new generation creates wealth from nothing. Good examples of this that come to mind are Hewlett and Packard, or Bill Gates, or Sam Walton.
I am not coming down on either of you; rather, I am just pointing out that I hope you rethink this class-envy thing the left tries to brainwash people with from birth, that the "rich" are bad, and the "little guy" is us. Repeat: it is people who produce and people who don't. The wealthy get wealthy by producing. Producing only helps everyone. If the "wealthy" just has money in the bank, it benefits us all because it is loaned to homebuyers who pay carpenters who buy hammers and on and on and on in the symphony of capitalism conducted by the invisible hand! (A bit thick on the poetic imagery there, I realize.) I think it was Friedman who said that if a wealthy person just puts his money under his MATRESS then THAT helps everyone, because it reduces the money supply, making the money still circulating incrementally worth that much more.
Finally: the left tells us and has told us for years that the "pie" is finite, and that THEY---the elite, the government---need to be the ones who divide the pie, because they are the ones who are all wise. Ronald Reagan delivered the conservative message to people who'd not heard it, for whom the left had drown it out, and that conservative message of Ronald Reagan's was, the PIE is INFINITE! The pie is as big as we make it by our sweat, toil, and creativity. If we can DREAM it, the Gipper said, we can make it reality. (Lord, is it any wonder why the left hates RWR so much?)
Wealth is the product of labor. Wealth comes from nothing, from the application of human creation and labor to ideas and to materials.
Rush has been teaching this for years; obviously, the EIB has lots more work to do.
If you define "looking out for the little guy" as running blocks for you and handing it to you on a silver platter, no, Limbaugh doesn't do that.
What Limbaugh does, however, is give you, us, the "little guys" of the world, information that helps cut through the BS.....common sense & a new angle.....he's a sharp guy....I guess some of us girls like the boys with big brains........HA!HA!
