Darwinism refers to survival of the fittest health wise. Extreme wealth, with our medical technology, can keep a dead man alive. Just look at Cheney. These people then propagate their defective gene pool. Remember the Blue Bloods?

You just showed your very ugly partisanship on that one right there....

I'd always get e-mails from people, "Would you stop talking about Apple? They're nothing but a bunch of liberals! I don't want to hear about Apple. Why do you talk about Jobs? It's nothing but a bunch of liberals."

I guess the most he revealed about himself was that Stanford commencement speech in 2005. It didn't matter to me that Steve Jobs was a liberal. It disappointed me for his sake, but that is not who he was to me. Steve Jobs epitomized American exceptionalism.
Steve Jobs: American Exceptionalism - The Rush Limbaugh Show

You people are some of the worst hacks on the planet. you would have been more than willing to provide a link if it was Rush going off on a tangent but this time you decided to make others have to go look for it themselves, why was that?

Problem with your analogy is that the "golden goose" (1% wealthy) is taking, not giving.

So the defective gene pool to you is the people with the most power, money and influence and the good gene pool are the filth-laden hippies on Wallstreet that can't string a sentence together...

Carry on...

Quote from your link:

Quote:
The fact that he (Steve Jobs) was a liberal.
I didn't know that the fact that Steve Jobs was a liberal would be your hot button. I even thought I would cite a source (Limbaugh) that you righties look up to.

BTW, exceptionalism is what liberalism/progressiveness is all about!

Well it's not them. The government allows it. There are no laws being broken and business influences the laws.

Little Timmy just promised to help the European banks.
Isn't that a mass transfer from the US ?

You can't see that it's the government that is transferring this wealth and sucking Americans dry while accumulating more debt that we are on the hook for.

The corporations aren't taking your money; your government is.
You willingly give money to corporations when you buy their goods and it's your choice to buy or not.
You have no choice when the government gives away money and then turns to you for repayment.

I certainly would never describe these god-awful, destructive, filthy peoples' "gatherings" as "exciting times. This is something we should be ashamed of...how did this country ever raise such disgusting people who have absolutely no morals, ethics, self respect or respect for others and others' properties.

They have absolutely no idea what they are doing, no idea of the hows and whys this country is currently in a mess, don't seem to have the ability to use logic and/or comprehension...I'll stop there.

Exciting times??? Good grief...NO! We should be ashamed we have such decadence here in the USA. Europe can live with such crap if they want to. We here in the USA should never allow such filth to exhibit in public.

Except the CEOs who run the investors (people who invest their 401ks) dry by paying themselves exorbitant salaries while they run the corporation/bank into the ground!

You seriously need to take a break from the propaganda your hear on Fox News. Then you will be able to start thinking critically again.
