willottica, you are exhibiting a clear case of class envy and fanatical ramblings there, comrade. You probably believe that Bush was behind the attacks of 9/11, right? Have you, comrade, ever owned stocks? I certainly do, bubby. And, my portfolio has lost about 60% of its value since your clowns swept into congress in 2006. As I work for a small business, I do not have the luxury of a 401(k) or retirement plan. My wife and I have saved and invested for our kids college funds and our own retirement. We have watched as our hard earned money has evaporated. I don't expect that our social security will provide for us in retirement or that the government will pay our kid's tuition. So, therefore, we must do the providing ourselves. I don't want to have to depend on the government to have to do anything for me. I am quite capable, if left to my own devices, of handling that myself, comrade. I do know what companies in which we have invested. We support each and everyone of them by purchasing their products. And, quite honestly, we do care whether each company does the right thing in their business practices. We have family members who are employed by a few of these companies. And, when the stock prices go down, it definately has an effect.

So, comrade, come on and pull it out for just a moment and get a whiff of reality, will ya? If you like socialist states, why not move on over to Sweden or France and contribute your tax money to a system that is more in line with your political beliefs. I don't think that the way to go here is government ownership of industry and private property. I don't like to be told by a government agency that I am only worth X amount of dollars per year. I say let these companies go out of business and let the free market have a field day.

But, you there sir are misguided and gullible. If you truly believe that Obama has the county's best interest at heart, think again. These guys want power and control. They want to demonize people who have acheived something in life. They like the fact that they can whip the mindless masses into a frenzy over these issues. This gives them an even larger sense of self worth. Why is it ok for these cabinet appointees to evade paying income taxes? They don't have to worry about higher taxes! They don't pay them to begin with!!! You should be OUTRAGED willotica! Instead, you have played right into their plan. Use your own F-N brain for once, will ya, comrade? Don't let these crooks and theives steal away your future and your family's future.
