Putting Wealth into Perspective
Putting Wealth into perspective
Posted October 31st, 2009 by MikeLawson
Let's think about how rich some of the people who want to rule our lives really are. Start with Hank Paulson, former sec of treasury. We know he was able to cash-out at Goldman-Sachs for a measly $200,000,000. How much is $200,000,000? Well, if you earn $125,000 a year, you'd need to work for 1600 years to make $200,000,000. At $62,500 a year, you'd need 3200 years. And Paulson, is just a low-level worker bee. He's considered, "lower-class" by the REALLY rich people. Most people won't make in 100 lifetimes what these guys make in a week.
And you know why? Because they got together and decided they were going to be the rulers of the world. They invented a financial system and everyone is playing into it. So, if you think you're better than someone making $20,000 a year because you make a million, get over it. You're a slave like they are and you're considered just as much of an animal by the self-appointed rulers as the bum in the street.
Nothing will change until people quit playing the game the inbred freaks made up. In my game, they don't get anything but an occassional kick in the face.
