The One Percent Are More Like Jesus
The One Percent Are More Like Jesus
In deference to my acquaintance Thomas Perkins [see above] (I won’t call him a friend – which at this point would be like calling Stalin your “squash partner”), I must disagree with his claim that the richest 1% in the world is basically being treated by the lowest 99% like the Jews were treated by the Nazis.
This is an insane claim because most of us 1% have been treated fairly by the world (we are billionaires, after all).
Granted most people under me (and my pay bracket) suck at their jobs and cause me great distress, but I still manage to live a decent life – especially when I am at my house in the Seychelles. We must always remember, if they were better at their jobs, they would be richer – like us.
That’s where our great compassion comes in. And that is what makes us great.
Which is why I would argue that the 1% in the world today is treated more like Jesus was treated (by Jews, Romans and anyone else afraid of change).
Imagine 2,000 years ago, and the richest one percent (Jesus) is trying to tell the world that if the rich were allowed to keep more of their money, the poor would (in effect) get more of that money because the rich would then spend it on little trinkets outside of the temples and get more massages and things.
If I was Jesus, and went up on Mount Olive (or wherever it was) and gave a sermon, I would tell the rabble that, you know, they have to be patient and they have to work hard and build companies and wealth for your shareholders and that would create wealth for everyone else in their huts (or wherever the fuck they live).
This is what Tommy P (as we informally used to call Thomas Perkins before he was a racist outcast) needs to understand.
The 99% want to crucify us 1% (like Jesus, it’s true) – but we will rise again (at Easter or Passover or some such shit) and rule the world and earn billions and be loved because that’s what Jesus did.

Maybe completely unrelated but fearing Jesus is a sure way to poverty while selling Jesus is a sure way to wealth! Especially the way that he’s marketed to us minorities!
I am envious of the wealthy because of….my conscience. Sometimes I wish mine didn’t bother me so much. I feel upset that poor people, seniors and kids particularly, are so vulnerable to the whims of public policy that are often manipulated by wealthy corporations and individuals (like the Koch brothers). Seems like a lot of wealthy folks don’t have much of a social conscience or concern beyond their own needs, wants, and conveniences.
I won’t address your words, everyone already has laughed at you enough for them. What I will address is how you and the other soon to be gone 1%ers have done to yourself and deserve everything that is swiftly coming your way.
You forgot, Khan. You just forgot. You forgot that a successful business has a duty, first and foremost, to the country it is in and the society of that country. Profit is not the first concern and the only concern.
You forgot, Khan. To look around your business bases of operations, see the poor neighborhood there and say ” I am going to put a factory there and make sure those folks have a good paying job to lift them out of their poverty. I am going to expand the schools in that area and gear them towards having the good and proper education to not only work for me but to grow the seeds of higher thinking”.
You forgot, Khan. That in helping your country with your business, providing living wages for people to work and raise a family with that they themselves would be paying taxes and supporting social programs, infrastructure builds and rebuilds, arts, music. Everything that makes a society healthy a robust and growing entity.
So much more that you forgot, Khan.
No Khan. You… you only thought of profit for yourself and stockholders. As an educated man, you know.. or should know history and where that path leads. You did not help society and a way of life, you greedily only thought of yourself.
Yes Khan. You, and those like you, WILL probably become the hunted. Your body guards, your panic rooms, etc. will be of no avail. Your forgetfulness has sealed your fate and those of your family, quite likely. And if and when that time comes for you.. remember this:
You forgot.
May whatever God you subscribe to have mercy on your soul, if they should see fit.

I bet you're all sorry now that you didn't listen to Jesus' message and repent. Now it's too late, so fark you, you're getting cast into a lake of fire, brimstone, torture and devils. Do Christians and Buddhists save a bit of hassle by sharing the same hell?
Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.
I think the way to Heaven (wealth) is by selling Jesus' message. The flavour or version doesn't seem to matter.
Be careful not to confuse "sell" v.s. "follow".

What the fuck?
It's odd really. You engage daily with 440 and you build up what you think is a reasonably clear picture in your head of who the smarter posters are, who the drunks are, who the shits are, and who the nutters /shits / loonies / methheads are (good morning Florida and potty).
And then, suddenly, Milord posts something like this and your entire belief system is thrown into turmoil.
Why Milord? Simply why?

I thought it rated weird enough to share here. Just for giggles. No truth nor deeper meaning intended.
This came from a site like the Onion, pure satire, but many can not tell the difference.
This guy is a Murdoch Clone like Steve Colbert is liberal.
I expected more from my brethren. Now bow your head.
Edit * I meant ... The way to Heaven is by selling ...
Sorry for confusion.
P.S.: Thanks for the community support. WTF were you thinking?

Oh well, I guess me having a go at amoral lawyers and unethical rich people/corporations is not so nutty then.
I can't believe people took it seriously, then again, , many accepted GW as president of the US.

VLAD, I was thinking you'd get a kick out of this when I posted. I guess my humour is too dry.(edit: for the others)vladimir wrote:Oh well, I guess me having a go at amoral lawyers and unethical rich people/corporations is not so nutty then.

I'm very surprised everyone is so Anal. This shit is funny. I was tracking Wendy Murdoch's scandal when I found a link to this site.
Open the pic above in a new tab and the website is listed. This guy likes to mock Murdoch and other rich fucks.
Very clever, but don't be fooled, it's almost believable.
And BTW, there are issues in Cambodia that echo, rich v.s. poor, that I hoped more astute readers would have the opportunity to expand upon. Too much to ask or expect.

Apologies, maybe I didn't express myself well, I got it 100%. I know it's a rip-off, but there really are people who think like that. The poor re poor because they're lazy, they deserve to be poor, capitalism is the best system, the rich are rich because of natural selection, what would we do without them, blah blah blah.
I got it, it was good, just the wankers who really do think like that that make it kind of non-humour.

^^ I know you "got" it. Woosh ... everyone else. That was funny too.
My persona is at stake. People were thinking that I was normal, oh no, gotta get more crazy now. How the fuck do I do that here?
