When was the last time an ousted CEO or some other wealthy person suddenly became unemployed and ended up on the streets? I havent seen any beyond stories written tailored to normal people to make wealthy people look evil. In the real world a wealthy person would just live off of their high earnings that they had put into savings accounts.
Nah, they'd live off their earnings that they put in an offshore account or stocks or something. Many athletes went from wealthy to poor as well, but they actually made bad lifestyle decisions.

Though a lot of wealthy people still had money left over, there are still plenty who went completely broke or filed for bankruptcy. In the real world, not all wealthy people put money into savings account or have money left if they accrued debt one way or another. The real world is quite different, as there are people who work hard and become a rags-to-riches story or people who work hard but can't get further because they don't have the right connection or aren't wealthy.
How does it hurt the economy? The people in poverty arent participating in the economy. Beyond buying new iphones and cell phone contracts, we never see people in poverty with 60-80 inch tvs, $40K cars, going to restaurants, movie theaters, or more. By moving money to benefit people who arent in poverty we get more of the people who arent in poverty able to buy even more goods increasing more spending and boosting the economy. Youre for education right? The money to the poverty can be instead moved to more support for people getting funding for going to universities.
I also doubt people who are in poverty want to really get out of poverty, if they did why are they still in poverty and looking only at very basic entry level jobs? You dont see people with advanced degrees which implies that these people avoiding going to college, a good life decision, and instead wanted an easy life to live, so its only fair that they are and stay in poverty.
It hurts the economy because the less money people have, the less they can buy. I also rarely see impoverished people with new iPhones or cell phone contracts, so I don't know where you got that from. And we never see people in poverty with these things because they don't have the money as they spend it on surviving. If they received more money and got a job, then they'd have more money to spend on more luxury items. Welfare gives them the means to survive, while many can go find jobs to help make ends meet. Giving people who have money more money doesn't benefit the country as much because the impoverished people likely get poorer and poorer and can't contribute to economy. Why would giving people who aren't in poverty help when they can afford things without help and make ends meet?
Nah, money going to defense can be moved to more support for people gettin funding for universities. Though, universities seem to be a scam now. :\
..... you're definitely either spoiled or live in a family who make considerable income, otherwise you'd know just how stupid and incorrect your statement is. Most people who are in poverty want to get out of poverty, that much is a given. However, it's hard when you don't have the money to afford stuff like college education (which includes textbooks and supplies). Again, if these people had connections or some kind of wealth inheritance to give them advantage, they'd likely get good education and good job. It has nothing to do with wanting easy life, I doubt most people want to live in poverty. You really have no idea how many people apply for better jobs but can't get them for one reason or another, hence why they're stuck in basic entry level jobs. Have you gone to a college? They're expensive, and many people who haven't done well in school will see it as a waste of time because they'd fail college. Or, they can't go to college because they have to earn for their family, which plenty of people had to do in the early 20th century.
Please don't ever become a politician. You'd just hold back the country, state, or town even more with your ignorant views based on your fantasy world. If people wanted to stay in poverty and have easy life, then why are there many rags-to-riches stories? Surely they'd prefer to "have an easy life" instead of working hard to be successful? They likely had to work 3-50x harder than wealthy people because they had no money or connection with the right people.
But hes getting jailtime.
I dont understand why one would want people in the financial sector to go to jailtime for decisions the companys workers made to people who ought not to have bought houses and mortgages when they did't have the means. There is some blame on people that needs to happen. This reminds me of people saying gun manufacturers should face fines and jailtime everytime a mass shooting happens, as if its the manufacturers shot at what customers do with the gun. Its just not right.
HOw? People don't deserve to be killed is the running moral theme thus the decisions I make are to prevent useless killings, therefore.
A. Abortions are bad because they are killing babies
B. Refugees from terroristic nations are bad because terroristic nations are killing people. If they came to America Americans could face killings. Therefore, no refugees even children, are to be allowed in this great nation.
Yes, after months of being free. He shouldn't have been freed in the first place, and if he wasn't wealthy, he would have gone to jail immediately. This is one of many proof that the wealthy have advantages that middle class and lower don't. If a school is accepting one more person, and it has to decide between an average but wealthy student and poor but brilliant student, it'd be more likely to take the wealthy student due to bribery/money and connections.
Why shouldn't people who did bad things go to jail? They committed fraud, embezzled money, cheated people, etc. They should go to jail, not be free to continue being dishonest and hurting the people and economy even more while making more money. This is right, and you can't compare that to gun manufacturers. Manufacturers aren't the one shooting people, they're making guns while the bad people in financial sectors are the ones committing heinous crimes. Bernie Madoff and Jordan Belfort paid/are paying for it, but so should all the guilty ones.
That's a lie. There's no moral theme there, just hypocrisy. You have no proof that majority of refugees from nations plagued by terrorism are bad or violent. France even said the Syrian passports were fake. And do you have proof that these refugees would kill Americans? All I see are two or three links, out of thousands of refugees who came in here. If you truly believed in people not deserving to die and preventing useless killings, you would accept refugee children as by coming into this country, you would prevent useless and undeserved killings.
One can also argue unwanted babies whose moms couldn't get abortions grow up to become menaces to society and bad while refugee children accepted into the country become good citizens who contribute a lot. If people had the same idea as your sickening, hypocritical view, we wouldn't have Albert Einstein, Steve Jobs, or many other influential people. Granted, Einstein was an adult whose religion was being targeted for death, but still.
I have asked repeatedly for proof that these refugee children would be as dangerous as you claim, but you can't even offer any proof, you just link to unrelated things and link to Europe, whose vetting process is different from US's. Again, the same defenses you make against abortion can be used for accepting refugee children; and the same arguments you use to oppose refugee children can be used to support abortion.
Unfortunately, people like you, Trump, and Hillary make this nation bad, not great.
