I don’t what would take 3 hours to learn; How about this in 1 minutes…
1; Blame other people for your problems and give up on your own hopes and dreams.
2; Get more free stuff paid for by others.
3; Focus your time and energy on trying to change a system that guarantees your freedom to control your own destiny and all the opportunitys that come with it.

Bob, you only forgot “do disgusting things and blame others for them” (i.e., crap on police cars, etc.). Otherwise, you passed the test.

Probably the same group of complainers that think they aren’t going to get some Socialism Security…or Obama’s going to give away their socialist Medicare. Talk about parasites. Most of the people take out 1/3 more than they put into the SS and medicare system. I’m tired of paying for these whiners.
Visit any Tea Party rally and you will find almost every social security recipient who denounces socialism has pledged to pay back all the employer contributions. I will be paying back Taco Johns upon my first SS deposit.
You know these 99%ers will whine about not having enough public (socialist) education too. They’re hurting teachers wah wah. Get a different job that pays you a year’s salary for nine months of work.
And dang, I’m tired of paying for all these breeder’s kids.
I think I’ve paid more than my fair share of putting other people’s kids through school. Because I don’t want kids, why should I pay for your socialism? Oh, and I buy my own books too. Don’t need a library filled with mostly liberal propaganda. End socialism? Defund the library. At least stop visiting it. Fewer visitors will help stop funding it and we’ll get a tax break.
But I’m sure we’ll be seeing these freeloading Alinskys dragging their spawn to the little 99% rally in the park where they will chirp and moan about the big bad corporations. Hey folks the corporation doesn’t need you. You need the corporation. It provides jobs. Is there anything more important? It provides the useless crap with which you will fill your home. The corporation (banks) carries your debt for that $298K home loan you can’t pay for. It’s not their fault for not wanting to know your income or financial history, and to fill in false information about you later. Some say the banks needed an over valued collateralized debt obligation (CDO) by mixing good investments with riskier investments to maximize profit. Look it up. It’s a lie.
That’s the garbage the Democrats, ACORN, the 99 percenters, and the New Black Panther party activist make it up to broadcast on the lame stream media… (they profit from lies)
but in reality it was Barney Frank who wanted everyone to have a free house to quietly MARCH our nation down the road to full-blown socialism. Look that up too. It’s the truth.
But If you really wanna be a useful MARCHING socialist at least join the greatest US socialist organization ever- the United States Armed Forces. Everything is paid for with debts to the Chinese. Troops in even the safest places get full family health coverage, meals, housing, a free gun, you name it. Full retirement benefits after 20 years? Yeah sure like the Minute Men of the 18th century received that right?
Ok so you may get your rear-end shot off but at least you’ll be doing something in our “interests.” Plus we’ll have six commemoration days per year for you, and you can hate big government while working in the biggest of government, and everyone will love you and shake your hand at the airport. (Whispers: “Thank you for your service.”) Feels all tingly in the ego. One of the reasons you joined ain’t it hot shot?
Oh, yes, by “interests” I meant: My Investment Portfolio. Me and the corporate union-hood, who exercise our “free speech” through generous campaign contributions to the ever increasingly accessible legislative process, love to thank the men and women in uniform for fighting for our freedom. And nothing says freedom like increased revenue in a global natural resources or defense industry market. (Buy Raytheon, Boeing. The “Iran” project is my club’s next investment.)
Stop the union thugs. Embrace corporate hugs.

Who knew? A local chapter of the Van Jones led, Egypt-type, Arab Spring. Nice marxist group whose efforts are pointed at class and/or race warfare.
I wonder why Professor O’Connell doesn’t go back into private business, make tons of money…become one of the 1%, and donate that apparently tainted and useless money back to the 99%?
I’m not part of the 1%;
not part of the 99%;
But proudly part of the 53%.

No doubt. These collectivists will do anything to make inroads to your hard earned dollars by bombarding you with their race driven white guilt and shame for success. Just a different flavor of Kennedy, Fonda, Malcom X, MLK or Anthony Weiner (Why won’t the government investigate the Breitbart murder?).
Tired of their lies about wages going down. The strongest middle class generation was built by Reagan when he stripped power from the union thugs and ended the socialist FDR tax codes (Unfortunately it has been entirely torn down since January 2009 when America died). But the leftys, like Trotskyite clown king Jon Stewart, will joke about how tax revenue is the lowest it has ever been. I say good! We can’t spend ourselves into prosperity (unless maybe on defense. Towns hosting military bases where I grew up do pretty well. Not sure why?)
You might be proud to be part or the 53% but chances are part of the 1% subsidizes some type of socialism in your life G.S.. At least you aren’t too proud to point to the pride in the socialism YOU engage in. America needs more people like that and less from professors on the public dole enjoying their lavish benefits while asking for more.

Yes. The wealthy should WILLINGLY help the less fortunate.
Big difference though with what you are advocating. Forcefully taking someone elses earnings or possesions for your own use is stealing whether you feel you need it more than him/her or not.
If you want to quote the bible start with the Commandment TOU SHALL NOT STEAL.

Since you want to quote the Bible these seem pretty clear to me.
Exodus 20:15 You shall not steal.
Exodus 20:17 You shall not covet your neighbour’s house, you shall not covet your neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is your neighbour’s.
Deuteronomy 5:19 Neither shall you steal
Deuteronomy 5:21 Neither shall you desire your neighbour’s wife, neither shall you covet your neighbour’s house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is your neighbour’s.

If you notice the address of the place it is same place the journal featured a couple of weeks ago, Awareness Project, run by Nan Lambert and Julie Coates Davis. Interesting how the journal left the name of the place out of the story. They billed themselves as a non-partisan group to help promote democracy. It is amazing how quickly these people will blow there cover! We knew all along you are partisan hacks and now you just proved it to us!

So let me get this straight? You don’t want to encourage new business but you want to encourage more free loaders? Ah, the ever inspiring libs.

I not so sure that the community needs changing. I think it’s members of the so-called 99% / occupy (fill in the blank) that need a change in their attitute toward the rest of the community. And BTW, you’re right when you say it starts with education. Thank goodness Wisconsin has started to change that.
