You do realize, flu, that workers who do all the productive work in society, and who are taxed at far higher rates, have a much harder time “accumulating wealth” than the capitalist parasites who do nothing productive for society, right? Which should we incentivize more: productive work, or speculation?[/quote]
Look CAR… I didn’t take this personal, and if you take it that way, that’s you’re problem. I don’t mind if you add me to your ignore list.
And i didn’t respond to you until now…You made this statement about how unions benefited people blah blah blah… Oh please… Let’s be even more ridiculous along your line of reasoning…
You benefit from my ancestors who came her from china to lay railroads so that the U.S. could become an industrial nation, basically as slaves and indentured servants… So show some respect and buy some goods made in china. Because if it wasn’t for my relatives, we wouldn’t have had railroads in this country….
Also, please return some of the land back to some of the japanese-americans that was illegally confiscated during WW2…If it wasn’t for them forcefully surrending land all over California, you wouldn’t be enjoying that nice SFH of yours in San Diego…Please pay up principal + interest that has been compounded for the past 50+years.
Thank you.
If you want to turn back the clock and tell about how one faction or society has contributed to America, then please do so without being selectively partial. You keep dwelling about past contributions of unions. That’s nice.. But please, look at where we are now…Because past contributions doesn’t give a license to egregious behavior in present day. You seem to think it does.
Also, there has come a point in time in which one group/faction has helped build this nation…..and even wall street and bankers that you seem to be so hell bent railing against.
BTW: your pension is a wall street financial product…..Go ahead and “punish” wall street…Let’s see what happens to your nest egg.
