Lets hope a similar fate doesn't come to your doorstep.

I know it sounds attractive to go loot the rich but the reality is,
they are not that rich.

If you took every dime from the top 10 richest people in the US, it
would run Medicare for about 145 days, then what?

There would be no more Microsoft, Oracle, Walmart, Georgia Pacific,
the Sands chain of casinos and whatever Soros and Buffett do.

You would have thrown a quarter of a million people out of work for
what? Five months of medical care for geezers?

Just like in society in general, the wealth starts dropping off pretty
fast on the top 400 too. By the time you get down to #31-32 you are in
single billion dollar digits. Bear in mind, most of this money is
unrealized capital gains that would disappear as soon as you tried to
cash the check anyway.
If you suddenly tried to sell 600 million shares of Microsoft, what do
you think you would get for it?
It certainly wouldn't be the $17 billion Forbes says it is worth to
Bill Gates.

The flaw in the above is that I know of no one who thinks we should take
all of the money from all of the corps. It would be a good thing if they
started paying there fair share though.

They already pay plenty, and provide jobs that pay more. Fact is envy
and greed driven fleabaggers are milking dead cows here.

I have to problem getting more but I also understand it is not a
panacea. All you have to do is look at the Bush/Obama tax cut.

$70 billion went to the $250k+ gang and the remaining $300 billion
went to those making less than $250k.

$70 billion really only represents a half of one percent of the
interest on our national debt.

So what part of $70 billion to $15 trillion do you think is worth much?
Are you sure your not being penny wise and pound foolish for the envy?
Just a 0bama sheep puppet?

Think, the problem is DC corruption and political greed. Government
can't solve the problem because government is the problem. This
depression and economic certainty startd in 2007 with Bernanke and the
Democratic congress, so why no results since then? Because government
is the problem.

Government refuses to admit it is the problem because that would mean
government has to shrink to fit what the economy can support in
sustainability. And how dare the American government shrink to help the
people and economy to get on its feet when Bernanke can just print more
money for more debt-tax slavery.

When the fleabaggers wake up to the facts, and liberalism fails them,
they will awake as a new more rational animal, something the government
really fears. In the mean time it is about milking the herd for statism.

Since I am fairly well-known "in these here parts" as a liberal and as a
supporter of trade unionism, I doubt the Wall Street protestors will be
breaking down my door.

Envy and greed takes no prisoners. The more you have, the more you are
a target. Doesn't even mater how you accumulated more, earned,
inherited, investing...doesn't mater a ****. The envy, the greedy hit
your street your no different than the rest of your neighbors.

So make sure the rifles and glocks are well oiled and the shells fresh.
