When anyone has to get motivation from another, they have given up on learning, don’t know who they are, have no curiosity, intellectually lazy, are dependent on other for their emotional stability and pretends to be intellectual.

"You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot help small men by tearing down big men.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot lift the wage-earner by pulling down the wage-payer.
You cannot help the poor man by destroying the rich.
You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot establish security on borrowed money.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away men's initiative
and independence.
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could
and should do for themselves." William Boetcker
...is what the rich have failed to provide to their nation. They have grown and adopted an attitude that they are better than their country. And being better than America, they are entitled to better treatment than the rest of the American People.
Well, I got news for ya.
You cannot balance the budget by giving rich people tax cuts.
You cannot bring about prospoerity by giving rich people tax cuts.
You cannot strengthen an economy by giving rich people tax cuts.
You cannot raise stagnate wages by giving rich people tax cuts.
You cannot help the poor man by giving rich people tax cuts.
You cannot fix our deficit by giving rich people tax cuts.
You cannot bring our nation together by giving rich people tax cuts.
You cannot pay for national security by giving rich people tax cuts.
You cannot build character, much less infrastructure by giving rich people tax cuts.
You cannot stand on your own two feet by sucking a rich man's cock.
Tax the fucking rich.

Hey maybe then "the rich" will say "up yours", I earned it the hard way, by working, and I not giving it to the freeloaders, I'm moving on to where people have pride and dignity and want to earn their own way. Let the freeloaders all feed off of one another and have their own "pity party" Ya know what Willy, I'll bet the freeloaders will figure out how to make a living when no one is there to hold them up.
Hmmm, maybe you defend the rich so much cause you cater to that segment group.
You still eating from their crums...
So forth the Bible say: "Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master's table..."
Whatever that means. Maybe it means that we need the very rich and they need us. If we don't eat their crumbs, we die. But no need for you to be so apologistic. It's not totally free you give what they want from you too. It's an exchange
I agree, we should all live life symbiotically but when one has to give everything, that is not symbiosis that is antibiosis. I am definitely not against giving to those in need, and at the risk of appearing pompous , I do donate, every week, I donate my time to the soup kitchen on Friday's, monthly I donate to several charities here in the WPB area, who in turn have helped several tenants of mine, and I take my doggie to an assisted living home twice monthly, as that gives these magnificent elders of my community a smile on their faces, and it comes back to me tenfold, in spirit. Oh yes, I would be neglectful, if I didn't admit to my monthly donation to the Libertarian Party.
IMHO, we should all give, (it is definitely good for the soul) we should just not not be forced to give.
Do you really think that the rich are paying more in taxes then what they receive back in services?
We the people are bound by the worlds debt.

Unchecked capitalism. It only make the rich richer and the poor poorer. This is exactly what happened and the whole world is revolting. Take Greece for example, I know everyone blames it on socialism which just bunk.
In truth, the rich in Greece never paid their share of tax, look it up. It has the lowest Tax Revenue in all of EU. Now let us take the Kool Aid you posted by copying from whichever brain dead source you found it:
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift : In personal life, one needs to know when to be thrift not to be. When you are sick and need medicine, being thrift will probably end up killing you which is what Republicans tried to do with the auto industry. They kept the Bush Tax cut for the rich claiming it will create jobs instead of passing the Stimulus package that would have created jobs, reduced cost by investing in the infrastructure. Bunk #1.
You cannot help small men by tearing down big men. Of Course you can. Historically, the United States would have belonged to a few like the Rockefeller, Carnegie, Vanderbilt, and other oil and rail road barons if monopolies created by them were not torn down. Bunk#2. Read history and think instead of regurgitating someone else’s garbage.
You cannot lift the wage-earner by pulling down the wage-payer. Left unto their ways, they will give you enough to eat so you will not die and keep working for them which is exactly what the slave owners did, and other plutocrats of the past did and the plutocrats of today are doing. Left to them, there would not have been a middle class in this country. Without the middle class, US states would have been a middling country instead of the most powerful. Bunk # 3. Read history. Local Library is an excellent source for history get to know them.
You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income. The whole modern financial system is set up to do exactly that. You are not telling me you only spend what you make and never use credit for anything. If you say yes, you are an idiot to do so and full of shit.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. There is no brotherhood when inequality is the order of the day. When inequality persists, revolution follows, the whole premise of democracy is based on getting rid of inequality. Kings, Queens, Emperors, Colonialists of the past didn’t last after while, did they. They were employers, were big men and held all the wealth so, what happened to them. Why do you think human race will behave any different today with that much of power concentrated in their hands?
You cannot build character and courage by taking away men's initiative and independence. You are absolutely correct. Character, courage and initiative belongs to every human beings, Brown, Black, White and Yellow. Not reserved for just the big men you refer to. History has proven this over and over, and the result have been disastrous leading to revolution. Fundamentally against democracy. Again, get to know the local library.
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves. No human has ever asked for help as long as they are given a fair chance to take care of themselves. The so called big men (your definition not mine) have tendency to take advantage of small men (again your definition) which has lead social unrest which has manifested in many forms. Again the fundamental premise of democracy is to level the playing field.
You may think you are superior to everyone in every aspect but reality speaks otherwise.
When anyone has to get motivation from another, they have given up on learning, don’t know who they are, have no curiosity, intellectually lazy, are dependent on other for their emotional stability and pretends to be intellectual.
