Who's Job is it? Why isn't it being done?



You need to focus your questions more so they are not meandering, open ended pontifications.

This should sum it up as nicely as possible even though your questions have varying and more specific answers answers.



We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

A huge break? Not really, I had a lot of competition for my wife. Anyone could have married her, but she chose me or we chose each other.

Lots of people inherit land, farmers for example. Some land has been owned by the same family for generations. Did they "earn" it? Do wives "earn" what they inherit from their husbands? Did or will your wife, kids or grand kids benefit from your hard work? Should they?

Your argument also sounds like Obama's statement; "you didn't build it". I took some land that was given to me, and because I wasn't a farmer and didn't want to live in PA, sold it. At the time I sold the land, I was working 2 full time jobs and 1 part time job. No, I earned every cent honestly and I worked very hard at being an honest guy. My father in law recognized my work ethic, my morals, my values and my personality, all of which I worked on and developed through my life experiences. I came from poverty and received a break but anyone could have gotten the same break.

Maybe your right, maybe I didn't earn anything and was just given a foundation(land). America, the land of opportunity, and I made the best of it.

I never implied that you're a dishonest person, just that you would still be working for a living without the break.

Family should retain 100% of wealth and property after the death of a loved one.

Did I imply that you implied?? If i did please accept my apologies. I still work for my living, would you trust bankers, lawyers, accountants, family with your money and future? That's a full time job just trying to keep what ya got. And as for the break, I often question myself, was/is it really worth it? My wife still works, full time, nights, 12 hour shifts. It's her choice.
