Nope. I'm talking about the 85% or so of the population who work their buns off their whole lives, but aren't lucky enough or have the wrong skills to ever become rich - Joe average citizen. And you want to take the franchise away from them. Getting rich by hard work alone is a nonsensical idea. Edited by Brewster, Feb 25 2012, 08:10 AM.

"Joe average citizen" He's an abstraction. He doesn't exist. "Getting rich by hard work alone is a nonsensical idea." But that's the story Hank tells us. In facts many on this forum tell of hard work success stories. |

Jim, a plutocracy growing on our border is of very great concern to Canada, and to democracies everywhere in the world. Remember, if this were to happen, you'd have no more say in your government than I do. |

Your tripe is absolutely meaningless here, Brew. You cannot influence any decision making. Butt out. |

Thank you, gang. But Miller is not likely to chase me or any other Canadian away. The only time I consider leaving is when the fact-free rants from the US Right get so far away from reality that I fear for my blood pressure... Speaking of fact-free rants, did you hear what Santorum said about Dutch Health Care? I think the US has just lost an ally. I should start a thread about that... |

Why don't we just have an amendment that welfare recipients only get 3/5 of a vote. Sound familiar? |
