I agree. I work my fucking ass off to get where I'm at today. I probably have assets worth around 1.5 million so while I'm richer than most people on the planet, I'm probably not rich by say, the rich celebrity democrats in California and NYC. Plus I give ~20k a year to charities. Not for the tax deductions (which mean squat really) but I've always gave o charities my time and money. I like to consider myself rich, I never have to want for anything but I'm certainly not greedy. I never earned a cent from any ill-gotten gains, why the fuck blame me?
Why not blame the asshole middle and lower class who live beyond their means and then expect me to fucking bail them out? At my lowest point I was living in a gutter (literally) and my bed was a gravel walkway. No one gave me a free ride, I have medical issues to this day I deal with because I didn't want to mooch off people when I had nothing and I knew other people needed it more.
So before you blame me, ask yourself, can you afford that 5$-a-day latte on your 10$/hr job? Why are your credit cards maxed out? Why don't you ever save? When you're free of your self-induced economic problems you can come knocking on my door bitching but until then keep stealing from your workplace, keep running up those credit bills, keep mooching off society with govt. healthcare, keep living beyond your means you greedy liberal fucks.
