Dude, the stock market and the housing bubble hit highs in exchange for massive amounts of debt. The federal reserve is enslaving us at the cost of your perception that George Bush made things great.

"you need to speak with a rich person who earned their money through building a corporation or a small business owner who makes a comfortable living."

You are speaking to a small business owner who made a comfortable living right now. Get a grip!

I worked hard at low paying jobs when I was young. I made money on much better paying jobs based on skills. I lost money on a business. I made money on a business. I've know a couple of persons who become wealthy without hitting a lick. And some who lost practically everything from a bad business decision although they worked real hard. I've known people who have thrown buckus of money into a project without a payback. I know people who have never hit a lick and were born with a silver spoon in their mouth. I've know prostitutes, drug dealers, drug runners, bank robbers, cops, judges, attornies, politicians, etc.. I've been in the business world for more than 40 years, dealt with nearly one hundred customers, hand several businesses and worked at several places.

And I say that what you say is crap. Wealth is built by those who work; not by those who have money. They tend to be parasite; not producer. Money is made when someone works hard to produce something someone else wants. And not just a few rich people. It is millions and millions who work and buy who make a nation wealthy. The government and the rich tend to exploit whomever they can wheneer they can. The power of money makes them corrupt for the most part and makes them be able to push others over the edge.

Big corporations are not big because a handful of wealthy people have money. They are what they are because people like me save and invest.

George Bush is a crook and a neo-fascist/socialist. He belongs in the same jail cell as his good buddy Obama. If you can't tell they are two peas in a pot, I don't think you are trustworthy because your reasoning is cloudy.
