a lot of my professors complain about their low wadges and nobody treats them with any less respect. One of my professors would even bring in his old clothes for the students to dig through if they wanted them. He was very open about it and most of us were in the same position of needed and getting hand outs.It's so depressing that they have a master's degrees yet they get paid as much as a manager at a gas station. When i graduate I'll be a H.S art teacher. Looking forward to all this crap

Kiosaki has a lot of good points in his book but the information is common sense and vague. Also, I don't agree with his anti-education stance. He is a border line snake oil salesman (Amway schemes), but at least entertaining.....

The remediation you suggested (an upper bound on P/T to F/T ratio) should also be made a condition for regional accreditation. In this way, any state that cuts its budgets by employing such labor practices, will do so at their peril. BTW: The rich are rich not because they are virtuous or hard working. They are rich because they exercise power. It is high time we do the same.

Yes that's true FriedDaisy.

That may be, madcatzy, but that doesn't make it ethical. Money isn't a product, it's an idea-- a symbol. It's a promise to exchange labor and products for the labor and products of others. Like parasites, the above mentioned suck from the primordial soup of other people's pain, suffering and honest labor to accumulate obscene amounts of wealth while they, themselves, produce nothing.

he he do you know WHY the wealth is concentrated in the top 1% of the population? because they have financial iq ! they don't live on credit and they don't work for money... they get their money to work for them. People like you are the "Robin Hood" of the world and don't get it at all. You don't see WHY somebody is poor and why somebody is rich.. read "rich dad poor dad" and maybe you will get the point.

I'm not at all surprised.In the U.S., wealth is highly concentrated in a relatively few hands. The top 1% of households (the upper class) owned 33.4% of all privately held wealth, and the next 19% (the managerial, professional, and small business stratum) had 51%, which means that just 20% of the people owned a remarkable 84%, leaving only 16% of the wealth for the bottom 80% (wage and salary workers).Can you imagine what might happend if that 80% of us stood up and said "ENOUGH!"? |
