I have an opinion, in fact, everyone I know has an opinion. The question is "What is the value of anyone's opinion?" Well mine is important and everyone else -- well, not really.
Let's take the argument of redistribution of the wealth.
My opinion -- it is time to redistribute the wealth to the middle and lower social economic groups.
Their opinion -- Let's keep the status quo -- keep the redistribution of wealth moving to the wealthy.
There, that makes sense.
********************
How about health care.
Their opinion -- we have the greatest health care in the world.
My opinion -- the greatest health care in the world can always be purchased by the wealthy. However, those without health care cannot argue this position.
********************
Their opinion -- status quo. Let the "stupid poor people" go out and get a job and compete.
My Opinion -- The sick and poor are our responsibility. We are blessed with intellect and opportunity. We need to care for those with neither.
It goes on and on. We are all citizens of this great country. Those with wealth are where they are because of this country's dedication to democracy and capitalism. It takes a great government to "share the wealth".
I hate taxes, but I love taxes. Can you go there with me?
