Default Really?

Having some fun with the lib mentality on Facebook.

You should have a lifestyle that allows you to work only as much as you want and allows you to live and be able to afford things. It is really bad that you might have to work all the time and not enjoy life. It is worse than terrible if you have to have multiple jobs. It is terrible if you, as a young person, might have to live with roommates. AND do not suggest that this is nothing new because today's kiddies just know that no one had those problems. Also, all white men made over $10,000/year in the 60's.

This is a summary of responses I got to saying that I never worried about what someone else earned or what lifestyle they had. I've never been jealous of what someone else had and have not worried about it. Apparently, I've had it easy all my life and today is just so,so different. Supposedly the solution is to tax those who do well and make sure those who "need" it don't have to work all the time, have the place they want to live and make sure they can buy things.

Come to think of it, I need the evil rich to be taxed more so I can afford the $60k to drive down to where my 36' Grady White off shore boat is birthed. Oh and a little extra to fill the tanks.

Boy did I ever mess my life up! In 49 years I was unemployed for less than 30 days and at times worked as many as 3 part time jobs in addition to being a cop. I must have been entitled to some "gimmies" and just didn't know it. I guess growing up poor and having pride and work ethic instilled in me pretty much ruined my life.

It amazes me the liberal mentality today... they want to work little but still have their entitlement hand out.
