A Healthy dash of truth here (Page 2): Can we focus boys and girls? It isn't the top 1% that is the problem. The top 0.0001% is the problem. The parasites at the top of the food chain.

The top 0.0001% is the problem.
The parasites at the top of the food chain.
The ones using foundations, off shore bank accounts and trusts to protect their wealth.
International bankers and politicians (federal legislators) leading the pack.

That's a fact... took 63 years of experience to get where I am today and most of that experience came from bad choices. I like who I've become.

Just wondering. At the end of Trump's term do you think you will be better off than at the start or worse?
Most of your list are just half-truths or just plain falsehoods.

I am comfortable that history will judge both men appropriately, and that it will not be a kindly view of Trump.

You've just said NOTHING again! Half truths?

Karpenter;
In case you don't know how to read decimals;
0.0001% = 1 in 10,000.

A lot of the top 1% = 1 in a hundred; actually work and earn their living.

Holy Moly, I have also quoted myself once before on several different occasions. It is lawful I hope? Ah, my indoor weather station says it's warm enough outside now to step out and smoke my own pipe and not pipe in on someone else's comments. I shall now forward this message to the Department of Redundancy Department?

Depends on who writes the history books.
Who do you thing has been writing the history books?
Especial those provided to students in the "public" school system.

You are of course correct that "history goes to the victor".
I am ever optimistic that Trump's complete failure, as both a president and a human, will be properly recorded.
Of course I could be incorrect.

BTW - I think history does hold a special place of honor for those who proof read.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

I judge myself as completely unconcerned with your question(s) or opinion on me or anything else.

But I do wish you a Happy Thanksgiving!

I agree, Peewee! It took me 64 years of experience to get where I am today and most of that experience came from bad choices. I like who I am and where I am at this juncture in life.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL!

(She also says "And don't fu#*k it up!" a lot)

Happy Thanksgiving back atcha!

It was only a simple question. Honest introspection is good for the soul.

OK
So Let's Take All That Away
