One of the moronic "Occupy" folks who protested in Tampa yesterday said that Romney is a multimillionaire and could never understand him because he never lived near the bottom.
Aside from the fact that anyone "on the bottom" deserves to be there because they failed to expend the effort to get ahead, here is a little known fact about Mr. Romney...
Yes, he inherited millions from his father. But he gave away every cent to charity. And when he first married Ann, they lived in a $75 basement apartment. There dining table was a fold-down ironing board. So yes, he does know what it is like. But unlike the dumbass Occupy idiot, he also knows what it is like to do what it takes to get ahead.
To that clown from Occupy I would say - get a job. Bust your butt. Work your way through college. Apply yourself and you, too, will get ahead. You will NOT get ahead by spending your time whining and moaning with the "woe is me" crap, and thinking anyone owes you a living. As my Dad used to say, "The world may owe you a living - but you have to work like Hell to collect."
Sidney Poitier and Barbara Stanwick both started out in the slums. They decided they wanted something better and they focused on getting ahead. I, myself, was a homeless person in 1990. I decided to do whatever I had to do to get on my feet and get ahead. I am now one of the 1%.
Very few of the 1% were born as 1%-ers. Most worked their butts off to get where they are. No one gave it to them. Mitt Romney did have it given to him, but he did not want it that way - he wanted to do it himself. And he did. That takes something that no Occupy person will ever have - character!
And by the way, Mr. "Occupy" - Barak Obama is ALSO a multimillionaire.
