Ok, I'll put this very naively. Dan Send a noteboard - 02/09/2012 12:36:33 AM
The entire point of his statement was to diminish the contribution of entrepreneurs. Obama said, "You think you succeeded because you worked hard. Lots of people work hard. You think you succeeded because you are smart. Lots of people are smart." Of course, lots of people are NOT smart. The sad reality is that the majority of people are stupid, ignorant sheep that can be pushed to vote Democrat (if they're urban poor looking for a handout) or Republican (if they're rural poor afraid the government will regulate them).

But I digress. As I have said, the reason why entrepreneurs succeed is not because some fucking corrupt government officials build a bridge with sand-filled Mafia cement that lets people get to their business. It's because they combine a good idea with tons of hard work and are willing to bear the incredible RISK of being a small business owner.

As a small business owner, I believe that we deserve to enjoy the fruits of that labor, risk and intelligence. I don't want to hear that some fucking underperforming teacher is unhappy because the union benefits are being cut - I don't get those benefits or anything approaching it. Those public sector douchebags already get more benefits and security than I'll ever have. The reason why it makes sense for people to go out and start their own business, the reason that "government official" is not the most coveted position in this nation (as opposed to France, where it is), is because there is a reward for the risk.


So what if the argument is that Obama and his ilk want to extend the benefits and the security that said public sector douchebags get to everyone? Would it be possible, financially? Would the help businesses, or embolden entrepreneurs? There have been some recent studies that IQ and general intellect jumps when you don't have to worry about the lower ends of the good old hierarchy of needs.

So FUCK OBAMA, and fuck anyone else who can't understand that.
