[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 2967477, member: 24302"] This from the guy who played Stretch Cunningham on All in the Family. He didn't mind making his millions in that most American bastion of capitalism, Hollywood. It's been tried before but these guys never learn. Capitalism is bad, but Communism or some soft peddled version of it is worse. And so much of this is envy of the haves. I could care less how much they have as long as I'm paid fairly. But if I'm not paid fairly I'm not going to tear the country apart over it. Complain, sure. Figure out a way to do better for myself, absolutely. Get a lot of people hurt or worse when I'm not starving, they're not attacking me, I have access to goods and services? Why? We aren't serfs in Russia. We aren't living in shacks in Nicaragua. We have big screen tv's, iPhones, SUV's. But the guy on the hill has a yacht and a private jet and I don't. Life's not fair! People's minds are poisoned by the Chomskys of the world. [/QUOTE]
