For all you Liberals who want to tax the rich more...

You're just jelly of their wealth, and not in an un-ironic way either. The rich earned their cash, spending years upon in schools that cost millions to attend, and having the talent of doing their specific job, such as managing an entire enterprise-level company, or managing numbers on Wall Street. They earned their position, and you're just upset because you can't make money the way they do, or doing what you love. You dirty Libs need to stop being so jealous of them. Any new policies that go to law need to be repealed.

    • It's not luck it's opportunity and knowing how to spot it. If you've trained yourself with different skills you can spot opportunities that others miss. I'd hardly call that luck.

      • Luck is hard to see, and I find that chance effects most of our life. The chance to be born healthy. The chance to be born in a first world nation. The chance to be born with a family with enough money to support education. The chance of an opportunity appearing. The chance of the public or investor even noticing you. The chance that you are not crushed by opposition. I've seen more people who've gave it there all and failed than people who also did and succeeded. This shouldn't put anyone of from trying, but I think its important to have this in mind; the market, people and your health can change on a whim, so its best to be prepared and not raise your hopes beyond reality.
