Whatever people. Fact is, well, I have two points to offer at this time.

1) Everyone has or should have some basic rights, yes. No need to stretch anyone's meaning to severely warped levels guys, no one is saying that people should be able to kill one another freely. But one of those basic rights is to be resourceful, to find other ways of earning income (Other than working for min. wage), the right to work oneself out of poverty.


2) There are people that came from the lower income brackets that have actually done quite well for themselves. Take the people who have no rich parents to send them to college, but they get a job bartending or bussing tables and they pay their tuition and eventually earn their degree and GET that higher paying job. Or what about a guy like me who began working for LESS than minimum wage back in the early 80's.... a thing that heppens when one works for family sometimes........ then worked for minimum wage for 4 years, after which I worked in the health care field for 15 years. During that time I tried several other ventures, everything from painting houses on the side to providing security for large outdoor rock festivals. I also ran a network marketing business out of my home, and it was that business that taught me to WORK SMARTER, not harder.

That is one of the fundamental reasons why I chose to start websites. If run properly, websites can do much of the work FOR you. Does a website not earn you money while you sleep? yes, it does. SO.... my second point is that everyone in a free society is free to get off their fat fucking brokeass hamhock-draggin-asses and go find a way to get out of the rut they're in. Everyone has the right to do that.

What they do NOT have the right to do (except under a communist flag) is to tell me that because I am now more successful that I have to part with a larger share of my earnings to support those that refuse to excersise the right I just mentioned. I'm all for helping other motivated people, but there are too many crapsuckers out there who just want to do the minimum and get paid the maximum.

Pure socialism sucks. It takes away the drive to succeed, because what's the point in succeeding? Your success is just taken away and re-distributed to those that didn't earn it. Let's be a country of sheep. Weeeee.
