Get the RIch, Get 'em

Let's hate the rich. It is the newest fad since last November. OK. But it is only select rich that we are supposed to hate. Retail Coporations, Oil Companies, Insurance Companies and Healthcare Professionals. According to Salary.com, the highest quoted salary for people who have jobs like you and me is $41,864. (Aug 2009). According to Payscale.com, the oil companies average salary for 5-9 years is $20,000 and over 20 years is $100,000 for exploration and $60,000 for oil and gas. So far all the facts I have fall under the $250,000 cap said by President Obama. There are retail companies out there that are proposing to congress to do the insurance reform exactly like their model. This is to use pre-tax dollars to promote a healthy lifestyle and charge accordingly.
If the current adminstration gets thier way THESE are the people that are going to lose their jobs. Oil companies pay MORE taxes than any other Corporation in the World. And take no Government subsidies. Let's drill more and create more of the best jobs IN THE WORLD! The insurance company operate on 1% profit margin and oil 8%. Even during the "record profits" for oil in 2008, they still maintain 8%. It was the priceof oil Internationally that was drive up pump prices. What is doing it today? Not Big Oil. It is the current Adminstrations devaluing of the dollar.
I am ready to hate the rich and what they are doing to my country. Let's start at the top Barack Obama. He made an estimated $2 milllion dollars from his books. And wanted an advance so he did NOT have to pay "the Obama taxes". Nancy Pelosi whose net income is $19 million. She only makes $217,400 as the Speaker so the rest must come from her non-union vineyard in St. Helena California. Biden, who challenges Dan Quayle in IQ contests, he makes over $250,000 a year.
Let's come clean. The people that are telling you to hate the rich are rich themselves. And when that doesn't work anymore because the american people are smart, they'll start on race warfare. Does Gates-Gate come to mind? How about Al Sharpton speaking at Micheal Jackson's funeral? You don't get a job from a poor person. Profits are not evil! Say it out loud, "I want my company to have smaller profits so I can make more money."
We work. We Pay our bills, drive our cars, go on vacations. And it is all thanks to the rich
