i think i deserve what i get, maybe more then the 99%. And I think that is a hell of a lot more right then the 53%.
We live in the greatest and best (words don't mean the same thing) but it comes with a price and we have to share that price.

Paying for roads, defense, and public services is one thing but supporting several nonproductive families is something else completely.
And just what are we the best and greatest at now anyways? Not education or healthcare. Nor much of anything else statistically speaking. We do make some smart bombs though, just not smart citizens.
