    Mr. Buick, who are you to say what I need? If I work hard, and get rich, and want to buy an expensive house, or a luxury car, who are you to stop me? This is the problem of socialism. The leaders decide who gets the money, and the majority must play along. I can decide how to use my money, whether I use it to get food, get a car, or give to the poor. I don't need your help, idiot.

    Most workers who work hard still don't get rich. How are they to be rewarded? When someone resorts to insults they have a weak case.

     Some peoples in this world should take a bath on social reality., or stop going to Disneyland. They are living under a big fantasyIn China there are hundred of workers sleeping in the premises of the factories because the salary that they are earning does not allow them to pay for shelter, and they must emigrate from the rural areas to the metropolis to work, and   they can not visit their relative, and the cost of transportation might affect their incomeMost of those workers they are not able to buy the products that they fabricate, they will never get rich, they will die in extreme poverty, the workers working for Foxcom which is the company that manufacture Apple products are children, and many of them have committed suicide, by the meantime the investors of Apple are getting super rich.In a El Salvador and the US there are thousands of children working in the agriculture, and sugar cane plantation, and the worked excessive works and they are  living in poverty, and they must work to produce for income to help their parents, and that is taking place despite that the hypocrite capitalists have emitted law against child laborWith the elimination, of the so called free zones, or 'maquiladoras'( textiles factories )  in several countries in the Caribbean, the Virgin Islands, and Central America,  workers are unemployed, and they level of poverty have increased higher than the ones they were living when  they were working for those factories, end they have been forced to emigrate to others countries and still they are living in poverty.In Puerto Rico one half of the population have emigrated to the USA, and workers are abandoning their homes, and they have prefer to go in foreclosure because they are getting poorer and unable to pay the mortgages, the stores making more profits are the business who are selling lugages The idea that anybody can get rich just by working,  it is only a capitalist  myth, wealth is always accumulated thru exploitation, stealing, extortion, and cheating. Like they say:: They need  millions of poor workers to produce one rich person
