Income Inequality

[Speaker to Animals]

Aw come on, you know it was the Devil what did that second thing.

Nah. The devil convinces them to flaunt it.

[Okeefenokee]

So pointing out that something is wrong with our system equals whining? STFU. Sounds like you love your chains....."Why I sure do Masta!"

For your information I work and make good wage but instead of being content I use that stuff between my ears unlike you. Trust me, one of these days those chains that you love will strangle you to death and while on your deathbed you'll wonder why did I buy into all of lies from the elites?

Tell me some more about how the man has you in chains while you type away during the work day. Either you're getting paid to do some other job while you post instead, or you're doing well enough that you don't have to work on a Wednesday morning.

No one is fucking you except yourself with your slacker burnout, "it's all the fault of the rich," mentality.

What was the American Median income in 2000? What was it in 2016? You either see it or you don't. Either way STFU.

Why would I look at statistics for other people and allow that to compel me to ignore my own reality? Every year that I have worked has been more fruitful than the last for the past decade and a half, but I'm supposed to ignore all that and join you in your, "we in chainz," lament because you say so?

No. You can let that be your world view. Go ahead. Not me. If you let the gap between you and your neighbor cause you to discount your blessings, you'll never be happy. It's the sort of shit I expect to hear from college kids ranting about the wealth of the rich while completely ignoring their own immense fortune at having the opportunity to attend an American university, of which the rewards can be huge.

We should send him a thank you card.

I would, but I am short due to divorce costs.

Says the freest motherfucker in the history of free motherfuckers. Compelling.

So edgy with your talk of lashes you've never received. So woke.

You live in the most wealthy nation in the history of the planet, at the height of global peace, and you allow yourself to be convinced that you know what it's like to a middle ages peasant.

From what I can deduce, there are two primary groups this bullshit line of thinking comes from:

• Ignorant college students with no frame of reference on how great their lives really are.
  
  Adults who have failed to achieve what they think they ought to have achieved, who then decide that everything they lack is to be attributed to others who have achieved more.

Have fun with that mentality. Let me know how much success such a defeatist attitude brings you. In the meantime, I'll be over here working for, and achieving that which I desire.

What I won't be doing is telling myself that what I want can't be achieved, because someone who has more than me has decreed that I shall not have it.

Fucking losers.

[Okeefenokee]

I'll say it again.

You pussies with your talk of, "the man taking all the money," is nothing more than weak hearted bullshit.

When I was little, my job was to keep the fire in the fireplace going throughout the night. If I woke up and the fire had gone out, I had to go out to the woodshed, in the dead of winter, and chop fresh kindling to get a new fire started.

I lived in a house built in the 1820s. Because the house was built before indoor plumbing, we had an outhouse. The one room in the house with plumbing was the kitchen. In addition to the sink and oven, the kitchen also had the washer and dryer. Being nearly two hundred years old, the house was heavily sunk into the ground, and we kids had to sit on the washer during the spin cycle to keep it from walking across the kitchen.

In the morning, my dad would turn on the dryer to warm up the kitchen where we would take sponge baths out of a pot of hot water heated by the fireplace.

You'll have to forgive me for seeing you as nothing other than colossal pussies when I think back on that, and realize that you are right now sitting in comfort that I never imagined as you prattle on on your keyboards about your slave existence in the modern day with your warm showers and internet.

Today, I own two houses, three cars, and will soon be buying a third house when we move back to Ft. Hood. None of your bullshit talking points are going to cause me to forget that my life is monumentally more comfortable than where I came from.

Add to that, my wife grew up on mud floors on a literally dirt poor island in the Caribbean. From where she came from, I was rich.

Fucking perspective. Get some.

As for me and my house, we will be ever cognizant of our blessings, and will ignore your attempts to convince us that we are down trodden.

If I deduce correctly, after reading between the many lines of you congratulating yourself on the pleasant smell of your own farts, your argument seems to be "things could be worse, so quit your moaning and get back to work pussy.'

Which is an especially useful line since it can be used by almost anyone, anywhere, at anytime and basically be true; it doesn't really contribute much to a discussion on, or even address, the effects of income inequality though.

The deduction is, there is plenty of opportunity for success without sitting in front of a computer claiming to be a 19th century African slave.
