Comment of the day!
True That!
A quick review of internet entries devoted to this gentleman leads one to the conclusion that the sole qualification this man has to comment on, politics, economics and racial matters is the fact he is a Negro.
Cure the problem, eliminate all government assistance !
Make your own way in this world or croak!
Where can I cash in on some of my privilege? Apparently I am getting huge benefits based on approximate skin shade. I’m missing out here. Where do I go? Is there some big White Privilege house where they’re handing out money, or jobs, or cell phones, or college degrees?
A$$HOLE! I didn’t get priority in college application, or jobs. I paid for my cell phone. No government agency sends me money.
God Bless you Norm. Hard work pays off.
His Parents couldn’t spell MICHAEL?
You are correct.
I grew up poor, raised by a single woman and so on, but among poor whites at the time, you still had high IQs sprinkled throughout and a high average IQ.
In my family, on my mother’s side it was a background of sharecroppers and fruit pickers and the usual, but while few of them were interested in big money careers and did things like the military, and the regular Joe jobs, that IQ was always there, the book reading, the interest in history, the under achieving Mensa members.
When I look at those old photos of the sod house pioneers, and the 1930s poor, I still see people who when the got involved in something could bring that IQ to bear, could become Colonels and Generals and Doctors, and Business owners and politicians and TV repair shop owners, all without affirmative action, and they had a good labor pool to man their enterprises, people with good average IQs and decent educations even if it was only the 8th grade, and a foundation of history, patriotism, and religion.
“I don’t think that’s true.”
Libs LIE! It’s genetic, I think.
I remember when the tax off a dime was removed. 1970 or so.
That was a blessing to a child that counted pennies with the best of em’.
Per my Father when I was 13 Years Old, “nobody owes you a living, so shut up and get back to work”.
Applies to all Races, Creeds and Colors.
I swear, if I wasn’t a racist before, I likely will be before all this is over.
This is Free Republic. We worked hard and studied when given the chance. We believe in the USA.
Everything going on right now is taking it away. I truly despise our government for not understanding what has made them.
That title is a hoot. Thank God rich people were throwing bottles out of their cars in the 70’s. 15c for a 24oz. 10c for a 16oz.
I became a privileged white millionaire; or sumthin’.
I am getting tired of these asshats and it won’t be friendly.
In the 60’s my ‘allowance’ consisted of what amount of money I could earn from trade-in’s on bottle return fees.
Lazy lefties have no idea what we had as children.
We had food
We had a roof
We had FAMILY.
We made it happen and never wanted the government near us.
Times have changed.
Exactly, and that includes crony capitalists and too big to fail banks. One system of justice for every citizen.
I’m with you. I wasn’t poor growing up but I was already thrifty. Half the Jr. High walked to several stores to get their chips and sodas for lunch and just dropped their soda bottles. As soon as school was out I was out there retracing the routes and picking up the bottles. I always had money.
Good one...
