Not long ago, I was at Starbucks and I was listening to an occupy protester speaking with a few of his friends. They went on and on about the top 1% and also claiming their group was the 99%, and that the top 1% rich people didn't care about them. I laughed to myself, because it was obvious to me that "they" representing the 99% surely didn't care about the top 1%, so I had to stop them and ask a question.
"Do you care about the rich people?" I asked.
"Hell oh," one of them said.
"Okay then, I guess you are even," I simply stated.
They were taken aback, they hadn't considered that argument, and then I went into a quick lecture that rich people are a minority also, as a matter fact, the 99% want them to become an even smaller minority, as in make everyone equal, by taking away their money and redistributing, in some Robin Hood socialist motif. Make no mistake, in the story of Robin Hood, he may sound like a very nice gentleman, but he is a socialist nevertheless.
Okay so, in Los Angeles it is 65% Hispanic, and yet, Hispanic is said to be a minority, but I ask; how can that be a minority when demographically speaking it is in fact the majority? Indeed, I have several friends who are Hispanic, a few that were born in Mexico and are now American citizens, and they laughed when I mention this, and said I was correct, but they still like the idea of getting discounts, and a good deal in getting government contracts for their business, or with their children applying for college to get student loans or grants.
Only one of my Hispanic friends votes Democrat, the rest are Republicans or conservatives due to their religious displacement, and the fact that they own businesses and really don't want to pay higher taxes. In fact, most of them would like to get into the top 1% themselves. In other words, they like the idea of their minority status, and they would like to get into an even smaller minority.
Rich people are Americans just like poor people. We shouldn't have class warfare of the majority versus the minority. Is amazing to me that so many people who are left-leaning liberals want to pick and choose which minorities we picked on, and which ones we hand out a bonus to.
If everything was totally fair and we really were equal under the law, then we wouldn't enlist our government, or vote for political leaders who promised to attack the rich and give their wealth to the poor. That's called stealing, and Americans should never steal from minorities, even rich ones. Please consider all this and think on it.
