American wealth distribution - is this a problem

[HappyScrappy]

It's the lazy indigent trailer park residents who have issues with the distribution of wealth. They feel they should be given money simply for being a US citizen or because other people have "too much" money.

yes, but very rarely do you see the people in the top 2% getting pissed off that they are there and then going about killing people or rioting.

the bottom group on the other hand does this now and then.

that is pretty much the only reason to keep them happy, aside from any larger moral issue IMO.

that said, the people in the top 2% do go kill people - don't get me wrong, but they usually have other organized groups of people do it. police, the military, etc.

True, but these bottom feeders can riot all they want. Darwinism prevails again.

Those who aren't smart enough to earn more money can riot and kill themselves off. Less people I have to drive by in traffic.

It means that everyone should explain this to their kids. It means that kids need to stay in school instead of ditching to go smoke some crack. It means that kids need to have a desire to better themselves and strive to be in the higher income brackets. It means that people need to have the responsibility of their own success.

Thats all I have to say about that

You didn't smoke crack. You want to better yourself.

Are you in the top 1%? If not, why?

well, that is all fine as long as we aren't in that bottom percent - which is fine.
and that is all fine if they only go after each other.

it is less convenient if they decided to go fuck up the top percenters instead of just each other.

also, on a side note, this has me thinking - is porno something consumed by everyone? does it cross all socio-economic lines, or is it mainly something that the masses seek?
to me it seems that prono is a broad range of ideas, not a particular product, therefore it is something that can indeed span those gaps.

You're damn right! I grew up in the getto and was poor as hell. My mom wouldn't accept any of the government handouts that we easily qualified for.

I worked my ass off in school, got an education and got the hell out of the getto ON MY OWN!

I'm not YET in the top 1%, but I'm doing pretty damn well for myself, income wise.

Eh, as long as they don't come for me, I don't care.

Even LESS idiots on the road if they do manage to get a few of the top 10%.



I'm in full blown curmudgeon mode today.

So why don't we cut the bullshit and take things to their logical conclusion? Anyone deemed surplus to requirements, such as people not as smart as Code, the elderly, the sick, those with bad luck, short people, fat people etc be gassed and industrially processed to make a fabulous new road surface. That should free up traffic nicely.

What amuses me is that some of you responded like you are in the top .1%,which we all know to be a lie.

In terms of true wealth I would bet you everything I OWN that you will never get in the top 1%. You weren't born to it, your not getting it and if you think again.

Furthermore, it pisses me off that people who came from where I did complain about needing more government assistance. I didn't get any of that while growing up and since I wasn't a "minority" I couldn't get any of the scholarships either.... except for a $3,000 college grant that I got for being low-income..... I had to pay for everything myself!
