<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1609980, member: 26302&quot;]Cloud, my mother was on the border cutoff on whether we qualified for food stamps growing up. Everything I did in life I paid for my own self. I owe no man anything, save for my mother. I didn&#039;t have educational opportunities given to me, heck I grew up on the worst side of town with the poorest schools. I TOOK what I wanted, refusing to be either a helpless victim or choosing the easy way out in life. </p><p><br /></p><p>No, I do not believe corporations exist for the public good. I believe they exist to make profits for their owners, like any business. If you are a shareholder, you have your say in the business, otherwise you have no say. Corporations are not public charities. My church is a charity I donate to, when I buy stocks I am expecting a profit.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry if I came across as a &quot;let them eat cake&quot; kind of post. I was going more for, &quot;get off your rear, take charge of your life, and go TAKE what you need to get a better job&quot; kind of a post.</p><p><br /></p><p>Again, why is it so many immigrants can come here and become so successful, with so many challenges natively born Americans don&#039;t have? Its because they are willing to do what needs to be done, work hard, and MAKE a better life for themselves. They don&#039;t sit around waiting for the government to do something for them. That was the tone of the post I was going for, maybe I didn&#039;t succeed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
