Bill Whittle: Rich man - Poor man

Excellent dissection of poverty, envy, and greed. As always with Whittle, he wraps it up nice and tight at the end.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

O noes!  "Poor" Americans!  Only 29% have computer game consoles!

I must be poor; no gots either.

First World Problems

The poorest American has access to what only the richest had 100 years ago, thanks to capitalism.  And we need to tear that down, because it isn't material goods Liberals want - they want everyone to be equally miserable. Its never about making sure that the  poor by and large, have what the rich have. Its about making sure that no one has more than them, whatever it is. Its about killing Ivan's goat.

They are sick people and should be isolated.
California would be an excellent place isolate
them since there is such an overwhelming
number of whackos already there. 

While living the illusion they are in a Socialist Utopia
they will have absolutely no authority over anything.
They will also be restricted from such Toxic Zones as
Santa Barbara Bay and other places or activities to
which they are ill equipped to cognitively relate.

There is very very few people in this nation who could be actually classified as poor or destitute!

But poverty and destitution is coming for a lot of people soon, courtesy of democrats and their appeasers!
We are now where The Founders were when they faced despotism.
