@kevcvs57 saidThen pretend I didnt say those things, and attribute it to another red-blooded American and it may make more sense to you. Like your daddy may have been??? A regular guy? Not being personal, just generalizing the average daddy, you know what I mean?
“ Me, I like a bit of competion, I like to do better than the next guy. I like to achieve more than the next guy. I could go on.”
Oh I’m sure you could Joe, what with you being an obnoxious blowhard who’s too weak to admit to a weakness, I don’t think many folks believe your rugged folksy projection.

@athousandyoung saidMaybe the son had it coming?
When Stalin’s son tried to kill himself with a gun and failed Stalin responded “he can’t even shoot straight”
@athousandyoung said?
Funny how you equate hard workers like Mexican farm laborers with people like Trump who “gain more advantage” in our economic system.
Ohhhh, you may have a point. Trump's life should be equated in all levels with the laborer. Expound, please? You do not close your comment.

Why don't you crack a book and study up?

I spent some time in Havana and I'll tell you what I didn't see.
I didn't see a repressed people, fact is they were jovial and friendly.
I didn't see hungry people, citizens are guaranteed adequate nutrition.
I didn't see police on every street corner as I had fully expected.
I did see smal ...[text shortened]... r Cuba has a higher literacy rate, and a lower infant mortality rats than the wealthy United States.

@averagejoe1 saidI suppose you think lying about what people post is a good substitute for your own actual counter argument.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think that Kev just said that people who work hard or gain more advantage and are more successful than people who do not …..Should Not Do That!
Unchecked Capitalism?!?!?!?! That, Desr Forum, is an OXYMORON!!!!
Oh Kev, you commie you.
As usual your an idiot and it’s no substitute at all. Do you actually like looking dumb or are you simply dumb and no other persona.

@averagejoe1 saidHow would you know what they DON'T TEACH?
Certainly not self reliance, independence, philanthropy, investing, starting a business, reaching for success, saving for retirement.
What, then?
Tell us, Jo,
........These conservative prognosticators are something else.

I'm glad Marx didn't prevail 100 years ago, we would NOT have these computers. (libs will not grasp what I mean by this sentence)
-----------------------
Bill Gates(Microsoft) and Steve Jobs(Apple) did more than just electrify the world with their businesses/products.
They also created more high paying jobs in this world than anyone in history, and the world governments prospered, too.
Ya know what the libs see in Jobs/Gates... ? two big piles of cash. "mine... mine... mine"
Can anybody actually envision the world's next great Captain of industry coming from Cuba or North Korea?? What a joke.

Communists teach their children that most business owners are greedy and don't care about them and their interests, which is true. They don't. They are self serving people who pay their employees as little as possible to maximize profits.
Communists teach their children about profit sharing and how businesses generally don't like to share and when they do it is very little.

You are such a wimpy weenie. A self sufficient person does not neeeeeed someone to caaaaaaare about them. God how weak. So you would teach your children to seek solace in the arms of a nanny? Until what age? Till they are 60? Why not 80.
Pitiful. A communist through and through. Of course you work for a corp, or a rich person. You are wondering how I know that. Wonder on.

@averagejoe1 saidDoes that mean you do not pay your employees the least amount of money you can to maximize profits? Do you offer them any form of profit sharing at all? Some employers do to a limited extent, usually in increments to reward long term loyalty. Do you?

@earl-of-trumps saidDo you think Cubans or North Koreans are somehow incapable of becoming a next captain of industry?
