Capitalism & the free market place is what made America

[mmckee1952]

Capitalism & the free market place is what made America the best place on earth to live and has been since the industrial age, but if this income inequality crap that is being voiced out in the various news media outlets gets legs, then the average American worker will not only see their medium wages stagnate but they will see more and more of his income being redistributed to those who are ever so willing to accept this money without having to be a productive member of the working class and earn it themselves.

In order for people to succeed and prosper in life they have to get an education, be it through collage or have a skill to which there is a demand for that skill, just going through school and just sliding through without obtaining a productive education of sorts or skill is a fast track to being poor for the rest of your lives.

People have to realize that the country doesn’t owe them a living, it’s each and everyone’s responsibility to not only better themselves, but to take responsibility of their actions and realize that they alone are either going to just be a minimum wage worker or have a productive job or skill that will ensure that they can at least have a home with a roof over their heads, food to feed their families and a decent lifestyle and be able to look themselves in the mirror and say I did it myself.
