Well if he means by cutting earmarks he means all the weapons systems that fall in everyones district then I'm all for that. Cut the DoD by 50% and they will still be over funded.

No wonder you are spouting idiot philosophy, you are reading books by idiots. Few are homeless by choice. Some are, but give them a choice and see what they take. Read some studies, and give up the Dark Side philosophy. Its a lie and you look the fool for believing in it.

FYI, I've not bought in to any redistribution philosophies. I know better. You'll never get anyone to release their money while money controls access to food. Even if they have more money than God, they'll never give it up unless you incentivize the process. Unless you are talking about drug-addled celebs, who burn through insane personal fortunes within a few years of success. They can't keep money anyway. But the hardcore sociopathic folks who spit on people from their ivory tower and devise ignorant dehumanizing philosophies to justify their bastardliness and greed? They never let even a dime go, and thus become part of the problem. I don't begrudge anyone having wealth, per se. Its when they act like an ass about it, and advocate heartless social policy based on these same specious reasonings I think they need to be poor for a while, so they can catch a clue and truly appreciate the reality before opening their fat mouths again.

I understand that business school has the highest rate of cheating in classes. Tells you something...

You're living a lie Greggy. Living a lie.
