the rich and powerful vs the struggling poor.. the 1% we all hear about.... is it fair that a tiny minority has more and wins more often than the rest of us?____.
(let's make a survey).
I believe there will always be a group of people or countries that hold a disproportionate amount of the resources. Life’s like that.
However 100 years from now it will be a different 1%. Some people make money, some people spend it. The third generation after the one who built the fortune are usually the ones that blow the family fortune and have to sell the assets.
This gives the next up and coming person an opportunity to gain wealth.
just was thinking how some powerful quotes, remarks, sayings hit the mark with me and how much it enriched/ enhamced/influences my life.
love beyond color.
reality is that which when you no longer believe in it , does not go away.. “the truth is a battle of perceptions.
There ain’t no such thing as a free lunch
what if we could exchange one president from another country to yours?...
say trump for trudeau, trudeau for trump, trump in exchange for your respective european country, etc -- for a few years?
would you consider it a win or a loss for your country?.
When someone calls them out on their bullshit
Truedeau: umm umm err err um eh
Trump: The federal reserve is ruining the economy

I don’t think Fred Trump ever needed his son Donald’s help. Donald’s father and grandfather were self made men.
The older trump dodged the army draft in the 1800s in Germany and made his fortune running whorehouses in British Columbia and Whitehorse Yukon.
Fred trump started building rental properties when he was 18 years old and ended up owning 27000 apartment units.

Trumps old man was worth 400 million dollars. I would hardly consider him a general contractor. Both Trump and Trudeau were born with a silver spoon.

About the same. Both born from a wealthy, entitled vagina. I really don’t have much use for people like that.
i may have got this wrong, but using the dreaded jw website, they seem to be directing the irish j.w's to go to birmingham in england this weekend.. is this correct ?
they always used to hold two conventions in ireland, are there none in 2019 ??.
probably the irish ones actually, truly, made a loss, but think of all the travelling, including a flight or sea ferry crossing if i am correct.
I might have been at that Winnipeg convention Blondie. There were way more people there than there should have been. A total shit show.
why are for the most part brown-colored people held in detention centers?
where are the rest of illegal immigrants?i think the question is valid -- as one website noted: "the u.s. government does not maintain reliable demographics of who is in immigration detention..." (https://www.freedomforimmigrants.org/detention-statistics).
a canadian woman not too long ago said to me (spontaneously - i did not bring up the subject) the following words when she heard the live tv news broadcast, which dealt about the immigrants being held at dozens of detention centers in usa: "i am canadian, and i have been living here illegally for 29 years.
Canadian illegals? The only ones I know are the snowbirds that stay an extra week in Yuma because they don’t want to drive the motorhome though a blinding snowstorm in May on the way home.
i had gotten a phone call from a brother who was really upset.
he said there was a resolution passed that everyone is in agreement to the selling of the elmira hall.
the strange thing is at the congregation picnic an elder told him that a few years ago the deed to the hall was signed over to the org.
There is another hall being sold off that I know of out west. They did a complete renovation last year. That seems to be part of the program. It makes the building easier to sell and it costs the organization f@#$ all!
.....it would appear that the republic of ireland (not the uk) is responsible under eu law for the setting up of a hard border with its non-eu neighbour, northern ireland.
just as spain had to do with ceuta in morocco.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ceuta_border_fence.
a 310 mile border would cost a helluva lot to build and to cover with security.
The UK is better off on their own IMO.
