40% of Americans believe that they are in the top 1% of wealth in this country!

It is clear we need a way to redistribute more wealth to a broader spectrum of humans across the planet. Too much in the hands of too few -- is causing disruption........
People should make money the old-fashioned way --- investing in stocks and bonds and real estate. Buy low -- when the markets are down --- sell high -- basically you know it is time to sell when jackasses like GB or Alia or MT are buying. There are loads of great real estate deals in other states.

I listened to about 1:30 of this drivel...the rest wasn't worth my time as I can hear the same on talk radio.
What I get from it is Americans can be made to believe ANYTHING. Who's to blame? Everyone from the press to politicians, from both major parties.
The pubs want us to believe in trickle down and spending cuts cure everything and the Dems want us to believe in class envy and a free lunch at the expense of the rich.

Where did the money go??? It went to the greatest 'redistribution of wealth' in this countries history.
This wasn't good business management, or shrewd investing that made these people rich... it was minipulation of the rules and laws that govern our financial system.
They didn't earn it... They stole it!

Well, it appears to be that BOTH parties can share in the blame.
From 1992 to 2000, the Clinton years, the Securities salary amount went from about 135K to 245K, an increase of 80% and in the GWB years it went from 240K to 400K, increase of 70%... in other words, the securities folks are saying, bring back the Clinton years... While for the non-securities folks, their salaries increase 7% during the Clinton years (47K to 50K) and 30% during the GWB years (50K to 66K). Hmmmm...

Greed is greed... when the wealthy think that it's perfectly acceptable for a teacher who makes $40,000 to take a 20% pay cut, before they pay an additional 3% in taxes... greed has overcome common sense.
The Republican party is defending the Rich getting yet another tax cut paid for by social security and medicare cuts. GREED!

You can put $20 a week into a mutual fund -- and you'd be surprised how fast that grows.
And don't worry about me -- I can stand the heat -- and I am NOT leaving public service.

It's easy to say pay more when it's not your money, any property owner in Schenectady knows how that works. I'm wondering what fees or taxes will rise because the fire department says they need more gear

We aren't worried. No one will elect you to anything, ever. Now scoot! Get! Go away troll....scram
"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

you ARE a moron...lies told to each sucessive generation:
1. I work this hard so you dont have to 2. let your money work FOR your 3. I'm from the government and I'm here to help
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS
for the NNTP/GOP .. "shared sacrifice" means that they throw a bunch of poor people, minorities, sick/elderly on a sacrificial altar ... and then carve them up and share them with their fellow wealthy, elitist NNTPers/GOPers
in political years -- the Rotterdam NNTP/GOP will even eat their own .. that is why they have a divided party that is rapidly declining
