The wealthy stiff the government tax-wise with their offshore accounts and "creative" accounting and at the same time are getting paid by the government for whatever welfare they can suck out of it. Laughing at the rest of us "little people" who pay taxes and don't get tax cuts/breaks/subsidies. No loopholes for us. We don't count. Money talks. The richer the louder. And now we have a billionaire... PET... who has already said he will be looking out for his peeps...the wealthy. At least he is honest about that one thing. less

CRONY CAPITALISM. Yep. The 50 Billionaires were or are on the Forbes List of 400 Wealthiest Americans. These folks moan and groan and kvetch about government while they are feeding at its trough. Hypocrisy, GREED or just good business?

I've even seen that right here on AM. It seems that rather than run as a pragmatic centrist a la Bill Clinton in the 1990s, Hillary tried too hard to placate the Bernie Sanders/Elizabeth Warren lefty factions of the party. Her reputation didn't help and Trump won the narrative. Food for thought?

The, "TRUMP FARTED, IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD", HOW? WHY? IT'S YOUR FAULT", s@#t is getting way too old. On that note, what do I know. I'm sure the intellectuals will continue to feed on the less educated to feel better. Have at it .. No offense to those highly educated and versed on the subjects, who do actually know how to communicate. Adaydreambeliever, sorry for the call out, I am being most sincere and respectful in my thoughts. less

Because I am too much of a slacker if I don't have to do something. It makes me antsy. I do nothing because I feel I have earned it. God it is so easy to be lazy if you are me. It is my favorite damned thing.I am happy being a freaking lump.

A month later I messaged her again showing concern and how is she, and that anytime she was up to it, I'd like to see her. I have gotten no reply from her in a month now, yet she's been on everyday, commenting on many people's posts, and posting herself etc. I know she is a 'phone' person, but I wonder is 'that' the reason she has not replied? or simply just forgot me... either way I feel low, having no reply, so I haven't called b/c I felt pushed aside... I'm not sure that is the real reason but, would you call a fam. member who seemingly is not replying to you even when you see them replying to others.. ? less

They hoped that Trump realizes we are diverse, as we are on this stage. They want him to honor their rights and freedom.

Tom Cotton never saw a war that he didn't like.. He's gonna get a job with Trump... CIA Director appointee wants MORE beds added at Gitmo and fire up the torture machine.What ALL of them have in common, is their belief that our wars in the Middle East ARE wars against Islam.. And they can't WAIT to wage it. It's exactly what ISIS wants. They're gonna START here at home. If I was an American Muslim, I'd be VERY afraid.excon less

Scam the public and get rich off them. Why didn't someone think of it before? He'll OWN SCOTUS too with his appointments. Isn't it grand what a little boy from a wealthy family can do if he just puts his mind to it?

Why would anyone call government jobs being handed out to reward people for their votes "SPOILS" and not rewards? It is currently referred to as " the political machine". That explains why inept/inadequate/inexperienced people are given jobs for which they are manifestly unqualified. They get the reward and we the people get shafted. And so it goes!

How can you be literal about anything on an internet social sight? Doesn't everything have to be figurative?
