There will never be a great president that all sides will praise. There will never be a viable third party. There will never be anyone who aspires to the highest political office in the land who won't rub elbows with those already in power who they'll need later on down the road to help them pass legistlation and further their agendas. They'll never be a time when certain members here will not rail on me and call me names for not jumping into the dreamers and idealists pool with them.

Believe it or not, many of you cynical ****s are going to move on one day to become the same type of play by the rules person that you currently despise.

I've seen it first hand with most of my friends and peers from 30+ years ago. Trust me, as soon as you own a home, have kids and worry about their future, pay a significant amount of taxes, depend on health care, are planning for your golden years, etc., your outlook on things changes - at least for most people.

For now, simply carry on armchair quarterbacking, and poking sticks at those who fail to see the world thru your ash covered glasses.

Typical.

The conversation was about RICH, WEALTHY, and THOSE AT THE TOP, and not about GOOD or BAD.

Pay attention and stay focused. I know it's hard but I have faith in you.

Typical condescending post from you. Let me know if you'd like to actually add anything of value to the conversation.

As a fellow geriatric, I ask you, why do you ALWAYS play the age card?

I'm not saying I've never pulled out the age card but it's not my go to move. A 25 year old might have three of your or my lifetimes of experiences under their belt. I'm old so I'm right doesn't hold water.

Pay attention and stay focused. The conversation was about MOVING ON, not GROWING UP.

I still have faith in you.

And please don't ever use the word condescending again. People in glass houses and all.........

I mean if you really want to get down to it, the conversation is about shutting up because you're uncomfortable when you're not in an echo chamber.
