I would be interested to see the Census data you got these "facts" from. I will agree that the largest financial institutions are probably not run by poor people - either Democrat or Republican. But please show me the Census data showing the majority of "rich folks" being Republican.

One thing we do know is they are ALL college graduates and ALL make several thousand dollars an hour each. I think they should be busted down to dishwashers and floor sweepers.

Fieorbear and I have had many prior interactions. But please note that I NEVER mentioned Congress, you did.I specified the greedy corporate folks !!!!!!!!!! My educated opinion of the most highly paid executive management and my previous comments still stand. |

As I indicated, I don't know how you'd get stats on how many corporate leaders are Republicans. Consider, though, that folks like George Soros (a billionaire) and Theresa Heinz (Kerry's wife) are wealthy, run companies (or at least own them) and are prominent Democrats. Also...do you *really* believe that only Republicans are "greedy"?
By the way, I wasn't riled up. I was offering counterpoint.

Yes, it's safe to assume most CEOs and bank presidents aren't McJobbers. No surprise that high school drop outs don't make thousands of dollars an hour as a rule.
I'm not surprised you have a problem with educated people getting high end jobs. But let me ask you this, if there's no potential for a high paying job, why go to all the trouble to get the education? You're content to live off the work of others, so you certainly wouldn't be one to advocate doing extra work and education just for it's own sake.[This message has been edited by Formula88 (edited 11-03-2007).]

The FEDS cuts can't save the Prince and CITI Corp Board members have had enough...they want Prince's head! The CEO's head will be delivered on a wormwooden plater on Monday.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Citigroup Inc. Chief Executive Charles Prince is expected to step down soon from the helm of the nation's largest bank, which many shareholders and analysts say needs new leadership to extract itself from a mess of worrisome debt.

I'd appreciate it if you would not make personal references about me or allude that lack an education or don't work.
I'm really getting annoyed with this constant character assignation bullshit so common with the ill willed and conversationally challenged waifs.
If you cant keep to the topic then dont bother posting in it.

How many frikken threads do we see you CRYING because someone is "picking" on poor Bill.
In a "whinny b!tch voice" "You can't assasinate my character." "So and so has intentionally been mean to me. Rate accordingly!"

Trying to get this thread into the trashcan douchebag?
Go **** yourself asshat. I'm sick of your constant personal attacks and immature school yard antics. You are incapable of maintaining a topic without resorting to your typical trollish MO.
What the matter spaceman, are you bored? Got nothing better to do this evening that troll PFF and turn it into your own personal sounding board opposing welfare and a helping hand to those in need?
You are a piece ofshit scumbad. I hope you rot in hell.
