[UglyGreed]

[YCHDT]

1. Thats Donald Trump Also isn't it? ... seems weird

[UglyGreed]

2. Well if that was your first thought

then I can't help you.......

[unblock]

4. he also said something like "or crazy billionaires"

[Loudestlib]

42. Trump isn't taking money from bankers but Hillary is.

In fact, Hillary made it into the .01% by telling bankers what they want to hear.

[Duppers]

44. Crazy Trump doesn't have to take money,

he has enough to run his own campaign.


He was talking about Hillary and the rethugs.

[LiberalLovinLug]

46. Those who take money from big banks..

..or weirdo billionaires


Hmmm...who does that leave......?

[LibDemAlways]

3. He and DiCaprio gave the

best acceptance speeches of the night. Food for thought from both.

[JaneyVee]

9. Leo is a maxed out Hillary donor. K and R.

[LibDemAlways]

16. I don't care who Leo is

voting for. I commented that I thought his acceptance speech was good and left it at that.

[NWCorona]

21. Exactly!

[Duppers]

43. Indeed they did.

[R B Garr]

5. Adam McKay's net worth is $40 Million. n/t

[UglyGreed]

7. So what????

Meme of the day it seems. First Grayson and now McKay Was that the marching orders in this morning's email????

[R B Garr]

11. Now $40 Million is "so what"......

Figures.

[UglyGreed]

15. Keep on going

did this guy's greed cause people to lose their homes??? Or kill people abroad???? Or make seniors lose their pensions and eat cat food????

[R B Garr]

19. lol, LOVE the constant "evolving" on the 1%'ers.

It's truly entertaining.

[UglyGreed]

22. Thanks for the kick

[polly7]

23. Does he run a multi-million corporation that ruins lives? nt.

[R B Garr]

12. lol, so now $40 Million is "so what"....

Next we'll hear that being photographed with people worth lots of money really is no big deal after all!

[polly7]

24. Nobody has a thing against anyone who has money ......... it's how they get it and

use it to control and destroy the lives of others that counts.

That seems like a no-brainer, don't it?

[gcomeau]

13. The argument is not "everyone who has money is evil" genius.

It matters HOW THE FUCK THEY GOT IT and WHAT THEY DO WITH IT.

[R B Garr]

17. LOL! I love the "evolving" that always happens when a 1%'er is found to

be even remotely hinting at Bernie Sanders.

[gcomeau]

20. What "evolving"?

If you an find anywhere where we were arguing, ever, that all people who have money are evil... point me at it doofus.

[arcane1]

27. They're just making up bullshit to hide the fact that they have nothing intelligent to offer n/t

[polly7]

25. Makes you wonder just how desperate some are. nt.

[think]

28. It's not about people being wealthy. It's about the ongoing corrupt behavior

Of these banks.

That's the issue.

[R B Garr]

29. Yet Bernie talks nonstop about the 1%'ers. Hillary is lambasted for Hollywood

fund raisers. The hypocrisy is not lost on people, and that's why Bernie's message only goes so far. It takes a complete leap of logic to start slicing and dicing millionaires into camps you like or don't like. It makes no sense, and people see that.

[think]

31. Do you feel the 1% pay their fair share of taxes? How many small donors does Hillary

have?

How many $2700 invite only events has Hillary done.? How many has Bernie done?

[R B Garr]

32. Does this mean that Adam McKay is Bad now?

Because he was good at the start of this thread.

[think]

35. Feel free to explain the logic of your question.

[R B Garr]

36. It's obvious. So obvious it needs no explaining and that's why you

are changing the subject. Read post no. 8. It's an excellent post, as is no. 6.


Ciao. Have a great day.

[think]

37. The thread is about taking money from banks. Who changed the subject?

Adios

[JaneyVee]

6. As someone who works in the industry...

I can tell you that 99% of movies made are done so by millionaire capitalists who inject capital into investments derived from the banking sector. Few people have 10s of millions just laying around under their mattresses.

[polly7]

26. How many lives have they ruined?

Do you put your money in a bank?

[R B Garr]

30. This makes total sense, and that's why Bernie's talking points take a total leap of

logic to embrace, which makes them appear phony to non-believers.

Interesting post! Movie profits are also the first thing reported on after a movie premieres, so making money is a definite priority.

[frazzled]

8. Brought to you by corporate Paramount Pictures, a subsidiary of

the giant media conglomerate Viacom. Just a bit of irony, for humor's sake.

[R B Garr]

33. There it is^^^^^^

Thank you. Perfect comment.

[UglyGreed]

10. Some rich guys are cool

and rich girls too.....

[R B Garr]

14. Yes, Bernie Sanders' Millionaires are super cool!

Only his, though. Not anyone else's Millionaires....

[UglyGreed]

18. Thanks for the kick

[Gary 50]

41. It's not whose millionaires are better, as you well know.

It's about who is corrupt. Hillary is corrupt. Bernie is not. Spin that any way you want but in the end you are supporting a phony who pretends to care about the middle class and poor but who thoroughly represents the one percent, the status quo. You dream of incremental change, we dream of a revolution where the government represents us, the people, instead of the billionaires.

[R B Garr]

47. Bull. Just saw a Bernie ad where Bernie himself refers to the "top 1%"

and how they are held in place by a corrupt campaign finance system. So he's targeting the 1%. You can't separate your own special 1%ers as if the rest of us don't notice the hypocrisy. The top 1% are deemed the enemy. Remember?

And if I said Bernie was corrupt, my post would get hidden, but you can apparently malign Hillary with impunity just because it's a cool thing to do for the "revolution:. I don't believe Bernie's simplistic platform, and am constantly perplexed that so many people fall for his phony ##@%&***.
