@Pherick: LMAO.....says the what, 35-40 year old that has lived through a couple recessions, owned 5 different houses, had his own business, raised a family and put his kids through school.......poor lost boy. There will always be those who have no goals, that are lazy and will rob and steal from those that have. Just the way the world is. Nice that in this Country we can actually talk about this with out getting that knock on the door in the middle of the night.

@river52: Yep again, you have ONE very privileged view of the US. If you can't look around and realize that not everyone can have privileges you did. Not everyone can work hard and always be guaranteed to get ahead.
People like you that assume people who haven't gotten ahead are just lazy or have no goals disgust me. You have such a tiny view of the world and just assume everything.
I am not loat by any means, I have worked hard my entire life, but I certainly understand that I am not responsible for all my success. I know because I am an average white male, who was raised in a middle-class life that I have had ALOT of advantages that perhaps a person living poor in the inner city wouldn;t have had.
Does that make me better than him? Fuck no. Does it mean it makes me a harder worker or someone with better goals? Fuck no. It means I got lucky in the genetic lottery.
Are there lazy people out there? Of course. Are there people who would rob and steal? Of course. However I don't write off everyone who isn't as well off as me as poor and lazy and maybe you should think about not doing it either.

Open your eyes and listen for a change. Never said everything is one way or another. Pull your head out of your butt chicken little. The sky isn't falling.

Yea expectations are definitely driving it in the right direction....he needs to deliver on the promises that are driving it though. If he doesn't....it all comes crashing down as sharply as it spiked.
You do realize the various measures of the success of the richest Americans aren't at the mercy of a secret dial in the president's office, right? I'm not sure you're clear on that.

@Dlrannie: yes it's the normal cycle , but there you'll be blaming trump like he did something horrible ... right?

@TexChik: If you bother to look at my answers you will see I made no mention of Trump at all. It's your bigotry that makes you assume that I did. You really must learn to think before you make comments - hard for a Trumpy I know but do try and make the effort
