We are Wall Street. It's our job to make money. Whether it's
a commodity, stock, bond, or some hypothetical piece of fake paper it doesn't
matter. We would trade baseball cards if it were profitable. I didn't hear
America complaining when the market was roaring to 14,000 and everyone's 401k
doubled every 3 years. Just like gambling, its not a problem until you lose.
I've never heard of anyone going to Gamblers Anonymous because they won too
much in Vegas.
Well now the market crapped out, & even though it has
come back somewhat, the government and the average Joes are still looking for a
scapegoat. God knows there has to be one for everything. Well, here we are.
Go ahead and continue to take us down, but you're only going
to hurt yourselves. What's going to happen when we can't find jobs on the
Street anymore? Guess what: We're going to take yours. We get up at 5am and
work till 10pm or later. We're used to not getting up to pee when we have a
position. We don't take an hour or more for lunch break. We don't demand a
union. We don't retire at 50 with a pension. We eat what we kill, and when the
only thing left to eat is on your dinner plates, we'll eat that.
For years teachers and other unionized labor have had us fooled.
We were too busy working to notice. Do you really think that we are incapable
of teaching 3rd graders and doing landscaping? We're going to take your cushy
jobs with tenure and 4 months off a year and whine just like you that we are
so-o-o-o underpaid for building the youth of America. Say goodbye to your
overtime and double time and a half. I'll be hitting grounders to the high
school baseball team for $5k extra a summer, thank you very much. So now that
we’re going to be making $85k a year without upside, Joe Main street is going
to have his revenge, right? Wrong! Guess what we're going to stop buying the
new $80k car, we aren't going to leave the 35 percent tip at our business
dinners anymore. No more free rides on our backs. We're going to landscape our
own back yards, wash our cars with a garden hose in our driveways. Our money
was your money. You spent it. When our money dries up, so does yours.
The difference is, you lived off of it, we rejoiced in it.
The Obama administration and the Democratic National Committee might get their
way and knock us off the top of the pyramid, but it's really going to hurt like
hell for them when our fat a**es land directly on the middle class of America
and knock them to the bottom.
We aren't dinosaurs. We are smarter and more vicious than
that, and we are going to survive. The question is, no that Obama and his administration
are making Joe Main street our food supply... will he? and will they?"
