I know that you wanted this topic to end, but you're saying so many things that seem contradictory that I can't even see straight!!!!

First off... If you believe that our generation (I'm only 33) is going to be the first one to have it worse than our parents, then you're not doing something right. Many of my friends, my brother and my wife and I are all doing considerably better than our parents were when they were our respective ages (home ownership, job success, money, cars, toys, etc...) Just check out some of the recent posts about young members getting some of the greatest cars ever made!

Application of ones self and your talents/skills are the key to individual success. Learn not to expect to have/afford what someone two or three times your age has. I love hanging around this board and checking out the cars, but you'll notice that there's no COPO/YENKO etc.. in my signature. I choose to play within my current means, because that's what I can afford. Should I hold this against anyone? HELL NO!!! One day I plan to have one of those great cars (but I know that I've got to work my ass off to get it).

As far as "revolution" goes, if you want to see things in our country continue to spiral out of control on a moral and social level hold tight to your liberal views and ideals. If you really believe that revolution crap you espouse than check a single box in November (Republican).

No one is entitled to anything except their opinion. People work as hard as they desire to get what they want. Those that choose not to work as hard don't get as much as those that achieve. I thought the student with the 4.0 GPA analogy was perfect. What's satisfactory for one person may not be for another, that's why God made us individuals.

Hope you're not too disappointed with the responses from the "corporate rich" (anyone that makes $40,000 or more annually).

Remember "Baby Steps".You can't start out running.
