    There are damned few Democrats kids who become wealthy. And then they live with the hate against the wealthy from the Democratic party.
    So when they win, they end up being called losers by the Democrats.

    Nobody owes more allegiance to politicians in DC than they owe to their own family and themselves.

    He gets credit for taking the shackles off CBP and ICE so they could do their jobs. But he built 452 miles of border wall on a ~2,000-mile border... and Mexico didn't pay a dime of it: The US taxpayer did... tens of billions of dimes, in fact. He DID NOT repeal Obozocare (one of his signature promises). He DID NOT lock up Hillary. He DID NOT insure constitutional carry. And he DID NOT release his tax returns.

    Why do you think Mexico was obligated to pay for the wall?
    The wall was to protect our citizens, not Mexicans.
    Mexicans paid a huge sum putting troops on our border. I do not believe America paid Mexico one peso for the troops.
    Congress had to repeal obozocare. Trump is not Congress.

    Surely you do not believe Biden plans to repeal the failed program you call Obozocare?

    Trump-Pompeo signed the peace treaty and troop withdrawal agreement with Taliban in FEBRUARY 2020. They agreed to have all troops withdrawn by May 1,2021.

    Post #40 is not on topic.

    Taxes is the taking by a small body of humans from a huge body of humans.
    Income taxes correctly were considered for around 137 years to be unlawful.

    So your claim is Biden violated a law.

    What makes you believe that in 2020 the Taliban was the government of Afghanistan?

    What else did Trump say.

    This is what he said.
    Speaking at the White House, Mr Trump said the Taliban had been trying to reach an agreement with the US for a long time.


    He said US troops had been killing terrorists in Afghanistan "by the thousands" and now it was "time for someone else to do that work and it will be the Taliban and it could be surrounding countries".

    "I really believe the Taliban wants to do something to show we're not all wasting time," Mr Trump added. "If bad things happen, we'll go back with a force like no-one's ever seen."
    https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-51689443

    So will Biden go back with a force like no-ones ever seen?

    Given Trump is Biden's boss on this issue.

    You are taking things to extremes. It's not an either/or. There is no reason to pursue wealth for wealth's sake. Determine what will make you happy in life and go for it. If you decide you will only be happy with a 100 foot yacht, then yeah, you're going to need some wealth. If your tastes are simpler, as mine are, don't waste your life busting your ass for huge amounts of wealth when that time could be better spent on things that bring you happiness.

    Personally, I have just enough income to get by. I'm not going to put in any extra effort to acquiring wealth, when my happiness is derived from things like walking forest trails, bird watching, and noticing when the mayflies are emerging from the water.

    Can't argue that. Regardless of what you do- of you do it well, perhaps exceptionally so, you will be respected and in demand, and you certainly should have pride in yourself.
    Most of the people I've known who are very successful, very wealthy- are people who work hard, plan for the future, think and work smart- and conduct business honorably, because they have learned to stay away from those who don't. We have a lot of very ordinary heroes among us who are vital components of a strong economy and a strong nation. They don't get famous, often they don't get wealthy, but that kind of person is always carrying their own weight and then some. I respect any person who does that and does it without abusing others.

    For the vast population, not all that many can spend a day watching birds.
    For the most living here, they have a need for a means to swap an item with you for an item you do not want to keep.
    Democratgs put demands on the population to evade being rich. That is what I object to.
    The man wanting to lay on the sidewalk in San Francisco has my blessings to enjoy that life of poverty but please, do not use Goverment to shame me or prevent me from living a more productive life. Democrats and their craving for taxes does that.

    Study the modern car.

    Notice some particular things?
    First look back at the 1934 ford coupe.
    The modern car has shrunk back to that size.
    Those like my son own very large pick up trucks. And for shelter in the camp grounds, he has a deluxe camper trailer.
    Democrats have shrunk car sizes. Democrats drove Americans into huge trucks. Democrats drove them also to the large SUVS.

    My sons truck only gets 15 mpg. So they shoved him away from a car like mine getting over 25 mpg to one getting less.

    Politically Democrats do not teach that at all. I believe as you believe. It drove me away from the Democrats false promises made, to the Republicans much more realistic views of how life actually is.

    I would not deny you the right to live a life of non productive works. If you only want a tiny sum to get along, that is your right and I would not stand in your way to live as you choose.

    Unfortunately, they have also shrunk minds. We have people no longer capable of understanding basic realities, some so simple that they shouldn't even require any education to grasp.
    I consider that a substantial threat to the future of any society.

    Frankly on paying income taxes.
    The vast bulk of Democrats pay very little in income taxes. They can hurl rocks at the rich since they do not pay hardly any taxes to actually pay for Government. They will pay self serving taxes they believe they will later get returned. Such as Medicare. They understand as we all do that as one ages, they spend more time ill than children normally will. So as they are ill, they accrue doctors bills. I remitted close to a thousand dollars to the hospital on Saturday. So the $14,000 paid to the hospital mostly came from the more wealthy taxpayers. My SS funds is a grand scheme to transfer funds from the wealthy to people like myself. I know what my life costs the wealthy tax payers. So why would I resent the wealthy? Democrats waste their entire life resenting the wealthy.

    I am in total agreement.

    Take the wealthy employer of a number of workers. Workers only pay part of their retirement costs. Their boss paid them for work. But he also pays half their retirement.

    Thanks to Roosevelt, a distant tyrant of America, he imposed taxes that pay for needs of the poor and hospital and doctor bills paid for the poor. We crossed that bridge in 1933.

    Notice it has not made Democrats happy. They live a life of resentment. They resented Trump. Trump only spent time trying to help them.

    Oh, I don't think it is non productive at all. And I'm not saying people should not work hard at what they want to achieve. I'm saying working hard for wealth instead of happiness is not necessarily ideal. I'm in school to become an ecologist. I worked my ass off for 20 years in the military, and I'm now in school full time. I'm not wealthy. I've got the essentials, and I don't expect my career choice to ever make me wealthy, but it will make me happy. Therefore, I consider myself successful. I work my ass off for it. 4 of my classes this semester have labs, so it's definitely a full time job. Unless I go on to get a masters or doctorate, I expect to be a wildlife technician, or something along those lines. I will certainly not become wealthy from that career, but I will be happy as a pig in mud doing it.

    That is what I mean about wealth vs happiness. I'm not saying people should be lazy. I'm saying what they should pursue is what will make them happy, not neccesarily wealthy. If someone wants to be an artist or musician, by all means, go for it. It is still a lot of work, and you will likely never be wealthy from doing it, but if that is what will bring you happiness, then hell yeah, pursue that instead of tethering yourself into something like an accountant (as an example) that will make you absolutely miserable, but wealthy.

    ALL successful people have 2 things in common

    1. they have the will to work and make sacrifices to achieve their goals

    and

    2. whatever obstacles obstacles a successful person has endured, they refuse to be victims and dont blame a political party for success or defeat..

    Mitt Romney said it best ..I will be fine no matter who is president or what party is in control

    sadly the current world we live in, success is measured by how tall the stacks of dead presidents a person has

    as stated in this thread already..BOTH political parties are corrupt....

    I think the DNC is the lesser of 2 evils

    at least the DNC blows some smoke about helping the less fortunate...they seems to spread the BS and money around more

    the GOP only wants to help the wealthy stay wealthy and blame others when they don't get their way
    Moscow Mitch is the perfect example of a scumbag republican...spends like a wild man for 4 years
    now that his party is NOT in control he dont want to pay for the things he voted to spend money on
    it is about POWER..not money...it takes money to keep power is why money is always an issue for the GOP

    a better debate would be the definition of success and contentment

    does money alone define success?? do wealthy people ever have mental health problems

    the argument could be made the obsession of money is a mental illness

    do wealthy people commit suicide??

    I have been conservative most of my life and leaned right most times

    then the right went overboard and began allowing the freedom caucus and now Qanon to infiltrate the GOP

    the freedom caucus is nuts and the Q anon people are nucking futs!!

    I do not believe one party must be crushed so the other party can survive...the GOP wants to crush the DNC

    I only had one other choice and that was to vote for a democrat because the GOP nominated lunatics like trump

    I owned a small business for 30 years and I think I have retired financially secure..

    BUT

    I dont need or want the big house on the ocean or a mountain..

    I have already driven expensive cars and found a pickup truck gets me where I want to go the same as BMW

    thankfully, I am content in my life and it dont take much for me to be happy

    my property is bought and paid for and like Mitt Romeny says

    "I will be fine no matter who is president"

    but one things will always ring true

    "MONEY does not mean nothing...now that I got some"

    when I had no money, it meant alot more than it does now

    Money is not a GOD as alleged by particular Democrats.
    That is a false premise. Totally wrong.
    Republicans never gave taught any poster that Money is GOD.

    Think of Money as you think of runs scored at baseball games.
    Can you win with no score?

    Are Runs scored some sort of GOD?

    Runs scored are to determine if a team won.

    But not to determine if either is a GOD.
    Money is a sign of progression.

    The $250,000 income by my 24 year old Grandson is just for starters.
    I see that in less than 10 years he will be collecting over a million dollars per year.
    This is why he went to college. This is why he chose some hard topics to master. This is why he will be able to live a great life.
    I hope he votes republican.
