I'm at a loss for words
Why are some americans like this?
Where's the lie tho
Do you think rich people were handed their money to them on a silver platter?
PragerU
its true, though
No. But saying that they "worked hard" for sounds like the most bullshit thing ever.
Most of it just generational wealth and exploitation of taxes and whatever. That's what the people in the top 1% do.
>Most of it is just generational wealth
And how do you think their ancestors got that wealth? They worked for it and their offspring are benefiting from it.
it's mostly teenagers that think they're gonna be bill gates when they grow up.
silly goyim, their hopes will be crushed once they are out of school and i will be there to garnish their wages.
>were handed their money to them on a silver platter?
Of course. Social mobility in the US is the worst of any developed country.
>how do you think their ancestors got that wealth? They worked for it
breh I'm all for capitalism but like
open a fucking book or sth
Nice try schlomo but the average jew isn't some crazy rich 1% elitist
He's right
Who gives a fuck. Quit bitching about rich people just cause you're poor and want to leech off of them.
Most poor people deserve to be poor.
I'm paying my taxes fair and square. The only leeches here are the tax-dodging financial aristocracy.
larping as a joo on Jow Forums is all i have don't take this from me
Most rich people don't deserve to be rich since they only have inherited their wealth.
>Why do americans
all fucking day
Laughing @ that one burger who just deleted that chart on social mobility which showed the opposite of what he was saying.
t. seething europoor who never inherited anything from his forefathers
every yank believes they are a temporary embarrassed millionaire and will be rich one day
Keep sucking up to that financial aristocracy, peasant. The US is the developed country with the worst social mobility. The American Dream is a lie, an illusion perpetuated by your elite to fool gullible idiots like you to defend their status.The overwhelming majority of your country's upper class has inherited its wealth
Americans love consumerism, they call others poor and admire rich people without realizing most of them were born rich.
They are also the people that use "poorfag" arguments more i think, pic related
>The American dream is a lie
Not really, it's very easy to get yourself out of poverty here. I'm not saying you can become ultra wealthy but you can work your way towards becoming at least middle class.
why is it called american dream when literally anywhere else on earth people have the same "dream" of becoming filthy rich and succesful ?
i always thought calling it "american dream" is an euphemism for "loving money"
Americans take criticism of their beliefs, in this case the American Dream, much more personally than most other cultures
It's called the American dream: it's the belief that anyone can become wealthy through hard work. What's the problem, Ahmed?
>Not really, it's very easy to get yourself out of poverty here.
It's not at all. It's fucking lie. Keep repeating that propaganda like a stammering gullible fool. Every statistical evidence proves this claim wrong. Intergenerational upwards social mobility is absolute trash in the US while being the best in the Nordic countries which is not surprising since contrary to the US these countries make actually sure that all of their citizens have the same opportunities independent of their parents backgrounds. Don't even get me started on tuition fees and fucking legacy admissions, lmao.
The American Dream is called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe in it.
>The American Dream is called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe in it.
woah...
big brain post
This
Class mobility in the US is nearly third world tier in reality.
There isn't social mobility here because half of our country is literally non-white and most blacks and hispanics aren't capable of getting themselves out of poverty. There's nothing stopping anyone from going to college and pursuing a high paying career.
>The American Dream is called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe in it.
they are the greatest slaves to the kikes for a reason
Inheritance laws exist do they not?
Link the archive screenshot
more like the American delusion
>The American Dream is called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe in it.
I see where you were going with this but it could've been put better
My point still stands. See
Saved for posterity
So? If individuals are not entitled to the fruits of collective efforts in the present why over time? This quite frankly flies in the face of the supposed heart of contemporary conservative ideology which is equality of opportunity without equality of outcome:
There are no poor americans, only temporarily embarassed millionairs
>jeff bezos worked 70 000 harder than your average college graduate
This is a naive and childish notion on how capital accumulation has historically come about. Primitive capital accumulation has mostly occurred through violence, plunder, slavery, forced labor, robbery and extortion.
shut up
At less Americans have the protected right o express their opinions.
Not trying to insult you, but pretty sure that if you post mean things about the Saudi king, you can get in trouble.
americans defend their jewish masters
>They worked SO HARD to pay off Republicans for billions in tax breaks
Because they believe they will one day be rich and want to keep the status quo because they know the system is stacked in favour of the rich but want it to stay that way so they will benefit when they themselves finally become rich.
Pic related.
They got others to work for it*
Inb4 muh risk
what's wrong with losing your company, don't want to be forced to become a wageslave? :^)
>look mommy i posted it again!!
Tell me what you think about your king and prince?
Not an argument
What’s so wrong about passing down the wealth? If your ancestors became rich and passed it done the tree, why is that so terrible?
You dont get rich off of tax breakes retard
Why is Jow Forums so bluepilled?
What’s so terrible about someone being born into wealth if their family earned it and passed it down to them?
Literally nobody said that ITT, you temporarily embarrassed millionaire.
Because every American is a temporarily embarrassed millionaire.
I wish I was a millionaire desu
i didnt say there was something wrong with it
theres just no merit to it
What does it even MEAN to say that you "work hard"?
We all know it doesn't literally mean "work hard", because a construction worker won't make more than 50,000/year if he's lucky.
Maybe it means "work smart"? Or "take risks"? But then why say "work hard"?
>Why do americans
fuck off
Yeah I agree there isn’t any merit to it
Why do Americans get so angry when people ask them about their stupid behavior???
Because this wording reinforces the idea that being a good goy employee and giving your jewish master 120% will definitely make you a rich man.
>Why do Americans
fuck off
all day with this shit, get a life
find a pic or story of 1 person doing something
>why do americans
Because most of this wealth and capital was originally acquired with unjust means. Extortion, robbery, forced labor, exploitation and so on. Do you realize that you are using the same arguments that aristocrats and royalty have been using to justify their prerogatives during serfdom? During feudalism noble titles and (tax) privileges, political powers, mandates and offices used to be considered to be the de facto property of the respective noble families passed down through the generations and justified as the divine and natural order of these periods which no one found objectionable until the emergence of the citizenry. What's so hard to understand that some of us find the analogous inheritance of incredible wealth within the prevailing oligarchy as gross and morally reprehensible as the passing down of noble titles, political offices and privileges?
Well, I’m pretty sure the profile in the OP’s pic is a tranny
You coulf be successful too if you weren't mooching of your government. Abdullah.
It's called the American dream because it is (or at least was) possible to move here, start from nothing and building a business.
why are yanks so brainwashed and incapable of critical thinking?
You don’t know all of that though. Yeah there are corrupt rich people obviously, but just because you make a million a year doesn’t mean you’re corrupt.
Do you think moot is corrupt? Moot is a multi millionaire
I don't mind if wealth is passed down, but I do mind when they belittle people and pretend that it was their "hard work" that got them rich, not Daddy's inheritance.
How am I brainwashed?
>why are yanks
it never ends
How do we stop the brainwashing that has been in place for so long.
They want to be rich themselves.
There's nothing wrong with social Darwinism in the free market
It breeds better humans with no one's rights being violated
he can't answer the question, he just wants to say stupid shit about Americans
is that why you wanna close off your country to imports and immigrants
Cuck genetics
unless the winners aren't white males amirite
Why don't you get it? The self-made millionaire is a fairy tale. It is the one in a million exception and not the rule. The people who hold the old money in America today are the descendants of the oligarchy of previous generations which in turn are the descendants of slave owners, robber barons, vassal and nobility before them. Their wealth is the results of generations of exploitation.
This
My boyfriend and I are from the middle class and make a combined ~180k a year and we're 22 and 23 in Texas
Temporary embarrassed millionaire is a good mindset to have, too. You are no different than those at the top. Those at the bottom are there, barring disease or traumatic accident, because they are lazy or incapable of having labor worth a market rate. We should not carry their genetic dead weight with charity or their spawn. Focus on breeding better humans via the free market without inheritance
Take away the children and teach them. It's too late for many of the adults.
No,
I want no borders and oppose tarriffs

Stop buying lies. According to Thomas J. Stanley's book, "The Millionaire Next Door: The Surprising Secrets of America's Wealthy,"only 20% of millionaires inherited their riches. The other 80% are what you'd call nouveau riche: first generation millionaires who earned their cash on their own. Many millionaires simply worked, saved and lived within their means to generate their wealth.
You poor dirty commie, I bet you're short and fat, too
>The self-made millionaire is a fairy tale.
My sister is one.
> It is the one in a million exception and not the rule.
More than 1 out of every million here is a millionaire
All you need to do is put in the effort necessary, in some countries it is easier to do than others.
I know people that do the same work I do that our millionaires, they must work smarter or harder than I do.
Ok so if you want to talk about old money, what is so wrong if your great great great great grandparents were rich and passed the money down through the family because they wanted them to live prosperous?
Yeah, there isn’t any merit to it. But how is this so immoral?
look mommy i posted it again!
The thing about countries is true
If it's hard in your country it's either because your government opposes free organization and trade among people or there is corruption and government is holding power it never should have been given.
Agreed, look at our drug cartels, our true marketplace winners
if only there were more people like them
What are doing this is Jow Forums we don’t use words and phrases like ‘some’ and ‘not all’ here. Come out strong and generalize faggot.
It is never okay to violate the NAP, but I do support full legalization of all drugs. Police are necessary to prevent theft and murder.
I have enough money, so I'm basically just lazy, I could be pretty rich if I tried.
>Come out strong and generalize faggot.
lol
>find a pic of 1 person doing something
>why do all Americans
SEETHING
I'm not even replying to posts that scapegoat minorities. It's another simple but disgusting strategy of your oligarchy to make gullible fools like you support the unjust system under which you are all living, as long as you are a little bit better off than 'those people' you will gladly spew and munch the shitsandwich that has been handed to you by your overlords. Divide and conquer. The oldest trick in the book.
>Americans unironically think like this.
Why are you shilling for the rich for FREE?
>"social darwinist"
>he still needs the State or poor people will rob and kill him
"darwinists" lmao
