    The entitlement is what is killing our country. People just want the nanny state to take care of them.

    I grew up poor, and was told if I did X Y and Z i would be successful. I did those things. I was successful. I had liberal friends who were surviving paycheck to paycheck. I put them on the same plan and they gasp became successful.

    It is why I love immigrants. They don’t listen to people who say you can’t be successful in America. They just come here and crush it.

        While I support living wages and single payer system. Until those happen, hard work is the path to success.

        I’ve done well and I’ve worked hard.

        Ive watched immigrants come and start businesses while people from here say there is no opportunity to do that here.

        Socialism/communism isn’t the answer as everyone just ends up with less and not enough.

        People need to realize they control the destiny and can chart their own path.
