Herman Cain Believes That If You're NOT Rich Then It's YOUR FAULT!

QUOTE

" Unless you're born into a rich family, you need A LOT OF LUCK and the RIGHT ENVIRONMENT to become wealthy. "

End.

Actually you need a bit more than that,my family invested over 80 years.. didn't gamble..smoke.. drink too much..)
Several generations didn't divorce.. commit felonies..we watched our health.. didn't crash cars much.. didn't buy homes we couldn't afford..
Our cars and trucks lasted for 12 plus years..200,000 +miles (FORD )

We took vacations we could afford.. several years we didn't take Any.our loans got paid off..and I retired at 55 to raise chickens and play golf and bowl.

I thank GOD I was born in America.
I thank my grandparents..and my parents..
I thank several in my family ( and many others ) that served with honor defending this nation.
I am leaving my kids and grandkids with my wealth..that I have preserved.
I took nothing from anybody.
I stole nothing.
I asked for nothing..just a even playing field.
I learned from my mistakes..I educated myself in reality.

Why should I give up 80 years of WISE investments that I risked for wealth preservation to fools who believe they are entitled to it ALL ?
They refuse the education we provide..
They refuse to see the sunlight..choosing instead to live in the gutters.
That is their environment they created..
Their so called "luck"

and each year it is more of them and less of US.
and we wonder why ?

 

Read my posts before you leave a nonsense poem.

 

That's the point.You think it is NONSENSE.
I and many others call it reality.
My family started its wealth from a dairy farm, in Arkansas during the GREATER depression. ( pre Obama years.. )

Those that think wealth is all corporations and loopholes are the true sheep out to pasture.

Nobody held us Back..Arkansas is not the New York of investing..( Walmart excluded )
We are not the Kennedy's..
and there are many more just like us.
Wealthy because they deserve to be...and NO apology's needed.

 

Wow! You really don't get it do you? Look at my signature? What does that say?

 

1st ..
Don't believe everything BUFFOON has to say.

and my Walmart comment was spot on just for you..

 

You certainly do represent the typical Republican - a clueless citizen who believes that Democrats are against the rich. You're wrong. They're against policies that send money out of this country and destabilize our economic system. It's great that your family did well with their farm. But who are your customers? I can assure you they're not the rich.

 

I've made my own way in life, but Cain is out of touch if he thinks the opportunity is just there to be had like it may have been in years past.

I saw him say the 'it's your fault' comment on TV and it sounded like a big F... You to anyone that's struggling these days. Cain is a tool of the bankers, nothing more.

I'll admit to liking the way he talked at the debates, but now I've completely gone against him.

 

If that were true, you wouldn't be for giving amnesty to illegal aliens who work here and send their money south of the border, leaving our GDP system forever.

 

oh good grief. Not everyone has the ability to be rich but they've certainly got the opportunity. Even if you just develop the attitude of WORKING and working hard for what you want you can have a comfortable life.

 

Didn't Cain get the memo? If you're not rich, it Bush's fault.

 

I thought it was capitalism's fault that every high school dropout doesn't have 5 million sitting in their bank account so they never have to work.

 

Just blame Bush

 

Well that is the republican consensus: if you are not privilaged, it's your fault.

 

And that is the liberal consensus: If you aren't privilaged, you can't be rich. Must suck for you libs who hold your selves underwater and claim someone else is drowning you.

 

The opportunities are still there. I may not know what happened to Cain between birth and C-level executive status, but I heard he was raised in a segregated south. I think that having risen up from that would make the current economic troubles look a bit minor in comparison (at least from the perspective of the individual trying to succeed in life, they are not minor issues in the big picture). Since I haven't had those problems to deal with, I see him as inspiration. If he can make it through all the roadblocks thrown in his way, why can't I?

 

America is FULL of those who Got LUCKY.
They NEVER received government aid in doing so..
They generally believe that government held them back..

I love it when a bunch of clueless poor people take to the streets and demand that BUSINESS change for them. Banks do the same.

It was the Banks FORCED by GOVERNMENT that took home values to the toilet.
Regulated by Democrats forcing home loans to those who couldn't afford 5 bathrooms and zero down to others without a job.

Business isn't the problem..BAD GOVERNMENT IS.

A homeland energy plan will ease trade $$$ going out and create jobs here.
SO SIMPLE , anyone can see that?
Unless you are against keeping American jobs and wealth being created in the 1st place.
That is a GOVERNMENT RECESSION..not a BUSINESS DECISION.

The government backs GM UNIONS while lil ol WALMART KICKS butt.
I wonder who buys GM products now..
FORD

 

I like how he is constantly talking about how all this money leaves the U.S. like it support the arguement.

you want to know why all these companies are based in other countries? Or perhaps ahve alot fo their jobs there? Because those are countries that do not strangle a corporation for all their worth. If you want more in america. Give the people some incentive to make them here -_-

* Born: 13 December 1945
* Birthplace: Memphis, Tennessee
* Best Known As: Former Godfather's Pizza CEO and 2012 presidential candidate

Herman Cain is a retired businessman and lobbyist from Georgia who announced in May of 2011 that he would seek the Republican nomination for the presidential election of 2012. He came to politics late in life, rising to prominence after a public debate in 1994 with President Bill Clinton over the president's plan to reform health care. At the time, Cain was the chairman on the board of directors of the National Restaurant Association, a lobbying group, and the president and Chief Executive Officer of the Godfather's Pizza chain. Cain grew up in Atlanta, Georgia and has a degree in mathematics from Morehouse College (1967) and a graduate degree in computer science from Indiana's Purdue University (1971).

After working as a civilian analyst for the U.S. Navy, Cain worked in the early 1970s for the Coca-Cola Company and then joined Pillsbury in 1977, where he worked his way up to the position of vice president. He had great success running hundreds of Burger King restaurants (at the time a subsidiary of Pillsbury), and Pillsbury made him president of their Godfather's Pizza chain in 1986. He and a team of investors managed a buyout in 1988, and he joined the National Restaurant Association's board that same year. Cain resigned his post at Godfather's in 1996 to act as the Association's full-time president and to work as an economic adviser to the unsuccessful Republican candidates for president and vice president, Bob Dole and Jack Kemp.

After leaving the National Restaurant Association in 1999, Herman Cain joined the world of politics as a columnist, author and on-the-air commentator. He ran unsuccessfully for the U.S. Senate in 2004, and in 2008 landed his own radio show out of Atlanta. By 2010 Cain was a popular speaker at political rallies for what was called the "tea party movement," a group of disaffected conservatives drawn to Cain for his views on taxes (he doesn't like them), abortions (he doesn't like them), homosexuals (he doesn't like them) and President Barack Obama's policies (he doesn't like them).

That's not exactly what he said. So far, I agree with everything he has said...I like him. If you don't like him....it really is quite simple what you are saying, and that is...

I AM A RACIST.

 

well whose fault is it?

 

Who is a racist?

I don't think Cain would be good for the country and I don't think he can beat Obama...

There something vague and vain in his message.

 

You said this..

Now, replace Cain with Obama...has that not what the right has been saying all along? Yet, amazingly the only thing that has ever seemed to matter is that Obama is black. Are you guys done with that now? I don't think so, because you can already see it starting, watch how the the left begins with their...."he's not really black" "he's an Uncle Tom" BS!

The only ones who are racists are in fact the ones that bring up race every ****** second, and the ones who use it to their advantage. Ask Cain I'm sure he will tell you the same thing.

So until after the election I will give the left a taste of their own insane disgusting ignorant filthy race baiting bull(*)(*)(*)(*).

Here we go..."if you disagree with ANYTHING that Cain stands for you will be call a RACIST." There.

"I don't even care why you think Cain wouldn't be good for America...because you are a racist"...happy?

 

I have NOT called Cain any names and I certainly didn't call him an "uncle Tom".

Why would I care about Obama being black or not??

I just couldn't vote for Palin and McCain..

I disagree with Cain on his energy policy.. He's vague and just blames "liberals"..

I disagree with him on National Security.. sounds like pablum to me.. We are still positioned as if we were in the Cold War with the Soviets.

 

Obviously, you didn't understand my point now did you?

 

The only Republican candidate that I like and would vote for is Huntsman.
