If your money is such a burden then give it away and live the easy life you describe. Pathetic complaining about having money.[/quote]
Ash, you must not know what it’s like to work your ass off for years to build a corporation into a multi-million dollar successful business. Just the type of response I would expect from an ignorant American. Don’t worry there are plenty of you out there.
Never once did I say making money or having it was a burden. Common sense would show you that in times like these the government is in control of everyone’s money. My business is struggling as is everyone elses in this economy and I have to hear about some woman giving birth to more babies than the population of Rancho and people like me are paying the bill. Chances are that you don’t know what it is like to pay taxes hence your reply to my post!

This board drowns in crocodile tears not seen since Boehner. I’d like to see all of these QQers put their money where their mouths are and live off food stamps in the projects. Apparently it is like living in paradise, but they wouldn’t survive a day without their flat screens and iPhones and prescription meds. This detachment from reality is sickening.Why people can’t be proud of their hard work and successes without pissing in the Cherrios of those less fortunate that them blows my mind.[/quote]
AFX, I don’t have an Iphone a flat screen and sure as hell will never take one prescription med in my life unless I was on my death bed (I had a permanent side effect to one years back) and I have spent time in the projects. In fact I grew up in the projects and I busted my ass to live in a better place. Maybe your mommy and daddy payed your way for college, mine didn’t. In fact, I worked 50-60 hours a week while going to school and unfortunately couldn’t finish because the bills starting piling up. Maybe I should also mentioned that I had to get a job while in middle school to help support my mother as well.
It’s not a matter of knowing what it is like to live in the projects. It is knowing how to educate those who are currently there. Our country gives way too much. I’m not saying to take the money away, but more to take control of the money we are handing out. I am not pissing in anyone’s Cherrios. You have to understand the frustration of those who do live under their means, pay a lot in taxes and are watching their businesses and portfolios crumble day by day!

ParticipantPlease, no rants on Catholicism here. I am including that detail just as it pertains to the facts:
My devout Catholic aunt & uncle have 14 children. The family was created in the late 40’s through mid 60’s. The kids were raised without any form of state aid and all have grown to be productive citizens.
Last year my elderly uncle told me he didn’t know if he could do it again (have 14 kids), but that was the Church’s teachings at the time. He had to work several jobs to raise the family, at a tremendous physical sacrifice. My aunt became physically worn out from too many pregnancies.
The kids DID NOT LIKE being in such a large family. They mostly say the parents had no time for them and they would never have such a large family. The older girls ended up being the nannies and housekeepers for the younger siblings. The older boys started working with their dad at a young age due to financial necessity. Some of the cousins harbor real resentments.
If octo-mom had bothered to research and talk to children from very large families, she would have quickly discerned that her selfish dream would turn into a nightmare for her children.
