They've trickled on me enough, thanks.
As one of the 1%, bring it on. And to the 99%, get your head out of your god damned ass.
globally I may be one percent but not nationally. If I was though I would feel the same.
I wish i was the 1% (nationally) so i could fund the things we need to support our citizens.
Am broke tho
I would love to be rich but I would rather be the lowest person on the planet while still living a very nice lifestyle. In other words that being the least of us would be a good life. good food, shelter, medical care, education, freedom, safety, the whole basic ball of wax.
That sounds nice.
Depends how you define it, but by some loose definitions I, too, am part of the 1%.
And yes, tax me more and close corporate tax loopholes. I don't care. Eat the rich.
Congrats.
That makes sense since the top 1% control so much money. Go where the money is. It's so simple. "Fiscal conservatives hate this one trick"
I like plans, but prefer action!
And yet my ow truck driver a few months ago was convinced that only Trump can fix the economy. I did not bring up politics, these people are just mentally ill and can't stop talking about this demented, old man.
