We need to be 100%. Because even at 99, there is divisiveness, there is a separation. There is a gap.

Americans need to be 100%.

Unless you support separation and divisiveness. Then go about your "99" and see how that goes.

We need to stand together.

Would you drive over a bridge that was 99% done?
Would you eat prepared blow fish that was 99% done?
Would you get eye surgery from a doc that had a 99% success rate?
Would you trust your kid to a sitter that was only 99% safe?

Mods, feel free to throw this puppy in the rants if needed.

So does it count if I do actually drive over a bridge that is "99% done" everyday?

Though I don't eat blowfish.

I was going to patent sharks with lasers on their heads but somebody beat me to it. If I added Solyendra solar panels to their dorsal fins would that be a copyright infringment? If you can even buy those anymore.

Hey, driving almost (99%) all the way to your job should be good enough, right?

You should get paid because you drove mostly all the way.

Lazer sharks would still lose to Chuck Norris, so your premise is invalid.

Oh snap. Why do we have to do an ATS throwdown?
Chuck is a uniter. Not a divider.

I have been of the mind these protest are being manipulated. Why is it that when talking about the 1% it defaults to they are bankers and such wall street big wigs? I mean who is going to the political fund raisers that cost as much as a 1/3 of a middle class salary? Who else is in this 1% bracket??? Anyone can look at a [gasp] newspaper or watch the news and see how bad the political graft has gotten. Look at the great Obama's fiasco with Solynara!! There is how the redistribution will work the way it is thought of now!!!

They did NOT earn that money they stole it. They are the real criminals. They built that wealth by breaking the common mans dreams.

Whats wrong with you?!? Why are you against the common man? Why? I really want to know what form of insanity has infected the hard right?

Why are you against hard working Americans? What made you want to kiss that rears of those that have flushed the American dream for huge profits in China? Why?!?!?!?

I surrender. I forgot Chuck beats paper,rock and scissors. But just wait till I get those solar panels working,then we'll see.

You can get a free loan from the Feds for it. All you have to do is resign if they don't work.

There may be a few criminals on Wall St. But in the ranks of the "common man" lies the criminal element as well. It is not the majority.

Just because another has more than you do it does not mean it was stolen.

Envy is a sin. And it is so for good reason.

No, I get paid the same.

However, I still have to drive over the same #ty bridge.

I guess the money I have taken out of my check doesn't cover #ty bridges.

Or space shuttles evidently.

It is not envy. I own a very successful coffee shop, what do you have? A job?!?! LOL I am my own destiny.

Sorry pal it has nothing to do with envy, I am above material wealth I have a soul that has not been corrupted by unfettered greed. It is about seeing my fellow countrymen jobs going to China. It is about the banks taking peoples houses on the fractional reserves system. It is about government not listening to the voice of the people because they have the insane wealth and power of the elite that are untouchable and above the law.

It is about justice and what is good and right. It is about the teaching of Christ.

It is about everything you seem to be not understanding.

The old world of wealth making you a God so you can be above the law and take from the common man is at its end, after thousands of years of mankind being used a s a tool.

Agreed. The sad part is they did work but China is flooding the market with cheaper, less efficient panels so the company never made a profit. It however would take far less than 500 million for me to declare failure

Wow. That just said it all. I will not debate a damaged soul.

Good luck with your philosophy int he coming years.

You are either going to be with the people are you will be a target.

reply to post by SeleneLux


So you fancy yourself better than I because I work and you own?

Me thinks you have more in common with what you perceive to be the object of your hate than you think.

It is not envy. I own a very successful coffee shop, what do you have? A job?!?! LOL I am my own destiny.

My job is to protect this country. Even the morons in NYC.
