Forum Post: It might not be wrong to make billions

but it is wrong not to proportionately share your resources. If a big nation makes so much and has more than enough to sustain that nation, then that nation should share with others.

same goes for the fucking millionaires and billionaires wondering whether to get another car or not to add to their collection of cars that probably sit in their parking lot, unused.

The USPS carries an extraordinary financial burden that no other government agency or company bears, the ad notes. A 2006 law, the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act, requires the Postal Service to pre-fund the healthcare benefits of future retirees. It forces the agency to pre-fund a 75-year liability in just 10 years, and costs the USPS more than $5.5 billion annually. This mandate is the reason the Postal Service is threatening to close thousands of post offices, eliminate hundreds of mail processing facilities, end Saturday mail delivery, and lay off 120,000 workers. In addition, the Postal Service is required to overpay billions more into federal accounts.

“Congress created this problem, and Congress can fix it,” the ad concludes

Wow. This is exactly why politicians are masters of deceit. You have to be in order to convince people that what is bad for you is actually good for you.

when you wake up in the morning deciding whether you want to have eggs for breakfast, remember, people in congo do not even have eggs.

I was actually just thinking that. I was just thinking how impossibly horrifying it must be to wake up in the morning on dirt, with no shelter, no food, and no one who cares.

That's why I feel so moved to do important things for these people. I sincerely believe NO ONE should suffer.

Thank you yor post made me puke. All you have is class envy and stupidity. I feel sorry for you.

[-] 1 points by yasminec001 (584) 13 years ago

Oh, I have no envy. I don't want what another has because I believe everything belongs to the world. I might have stupidity but at least I am aware enough to say when I am being stupid, ignorant, or short-sighted.

I don't feel sorry that you feel sorry for me.

The solution to all these problems lies in the proposal, Americans should buy American made products. This is true because once Americans start buying more American goods the demand for them will increase. As a result of the rising demand, more factories or plants will be developed. Many good job opportunities will then be available. Not only will the manufacturers benefit, openings in higher paying fields will increase. A few of these include the engineers of the building and the plumbing and construction companies. Hence when all this is put into action many Americans will be on better economic standing. That means they will once again have high buying power. Rising profits for American base business and their employees will take place. All of this combined will keep the U.S economy and its citizens financially healthy. In order to achieve this, all Americans must be properly informed by the government, as to why they should buy American.

I totally agree however some things just aren't made here anymore.
I always try to buy Made in the USA but sometimes it is impossible.

I know certain things are not anymore like some electrical appliance but most products still have a Made in USA. Just google the products you are looking for followed by Made in USA. Sometimes you have to search hard but its worth it! I know I feel good about supporting my fellow Americans, I feel good when I see the qulaity of my new or used vintage product and I then take better care of my purchases and actually save money!

Agreed, we need to set a limit on what people can have. Such as only 2 cars per family. $1 million cap on wealth. Etc.

The excess will go to The People

1 million sounds about right. anything above that, the proceeds go to charities and programs implemented by the government to provide for its people. I mean..if i was making 400,000 i'd be happy as hell. but I don't want to start limiting people to an unfair amount.
