Participant[quote=SD Realtor]Of course you are Allan. Come on now, you could not have earned 250k through hard work could you? [/quote]
Hard work? Don’t make me laugh. We don’t pay for hard work in this country, we pay for either smart work or for fraud. Under George Bush, fraud paid off big time. Fraud-committing bankers and wall streeters made out big time under Bush
Who works harder, the strawberry picker out in the fields from sun-up to sun-down or your typical white-collar worker? Which would you rather be? I’ll take my white-collar job, thank you very much, even if I do have to occasionally sit on my ass in front of a computer for 50- to 60-hours per week. Your typical white-collar worker wouldn’t last one day in the fields.
White-collar workers have no idea what it means to work hard. Sitting in front of a computer in an air-conditioned office is not hard. Being out in the fields all day with no health insurance is hard.

February 21, 2009 at 6:34 PM #351591ParticipantAnd another thing, going to college/graduate school/whatever isn’t hard either. It’s a blast. Just because you’ve got some kind of degree (or many degrees) doesn’t mean you’ve ‘paid your dues’.
Innocent prisoners in Abu Grahib who were tortured paid their dues. All you did was hang out with a bunch of other lucky, bright young people for a few years.
Living in this country is like living in a womb. Most people in this country have no idea what true hard times are like.

ParticipantBreezie, would those who came to the US from communist concentration camps with nothing but the clothes on their back, worked hard, study hard, and now make over $250k crooks too? Abu Graib has nothing on communist concentration camps. Imagine seeing your family getting round up because your family did well for themselves, get put to “work” then executed. Then you have to carry their body and bury them yourself. If you haven’t gone through that, you haven’t seen nothing yet.
