Comments: Revised George Carlin: "It's a very small club and you ain't in it."
Saw that on google news this morning and decided to take a look.
I lost count of the number of shallow triggers.
This is sure to increase the space in that air gap between the cerebellum and the brain stem of those mostly controlled by over emotionalism.
How much someone else earns is of no concern to me, nor do I appreciate being told.
My only concern in this regard is how much I earn and it's no one else's business what that is.
Remember when a persons earnings was a confidence between the earner and the payer?
When did it become mandatory for someone's personal business to become everyone else's business?
This article is fake news meant to stab emotional basket case losers right in the brain.
There is no value in this information.

Looking at that bunch, how many have raised a fine family of six, how many enjoy the results of their skilled handicraft, how many can sleep through the night without chemical help, how many can nap away most afternoons, and how many are blessed with a satisfied mind? I hope it's all. I suspect it's few at best.

The other element to this is that wealth is created. Just because someone has a bunch of wealth does not mean someone else cannot develop their own. If my next door neighbor is filthy rich then good for him. He has no bearing on what I can earn for myself.

@Snake, similarly, if your neighbor doesn't have 2 nickels to rub together that doesn't mean you are doomed to be poor.
The brain dead have been trained to believe that the economic pie is a certain size and if one guy gets a larger piece then everybody else has to get smaller pieces.
The smart guy says fuck you and goes and bakes his own gd pie.
And when the village idiot demands the smart guy give it up he gets a smart guy fist print right in the middle of his stupid face.

OXFAM??
Oxfam is the UN.
You know, the club without any divisions—not even a platoon—that presumes it speaks for the world.
I propose evicting the UN from its free digs in Turtle Bay, then renting the UN building at current market rates, and giving the proceeds to 'the poor'. Because it's a big planet, and there are lots of places the UN can meet.
How about it, UN? Or are you just talking the talk?
