QUOTE Yep, competitors like Warren Buffet, old Warren makes a ton off the BNSF tank trains transporting that highly flammable crude through cities. Is it a wonder bammer doesn't want the pipeline? http://www.dailykos.com/story...ibutionBuffet must make more money selling pipe than from his railroad he’s actually in favor of XL. these guys are all about more money, I lost respect for all these fat cats. If we can believe the article http://www.omaha.com/article/20140303/MONEY/140309627
Yeah, those people that are smart and make money are naughty 
Seriously, he looks at both sides of the coin, he employs lots of people to analyze investments. Because he makes money you have no respect for him? Do you make money at you job?

If the fatcats arrived at that level of wealth by playing by the written and implied rules. that would be one thing. But they seldom do. I can use big banks and the repeal of Glass-Stegall as an example. Or Larry Silverstein and 9/11. Or fracking operations that poison peoples' groundwater. That's called taking a dump where you eat. Of course, in your "world economy" model, you can dump here, and then go eat in China.
Stop looking at these billionaire bastardos as though you're of like mind and in the same class. They wouldn't pee on you if you were on fire.

^^ oh I know they don't gave a ratsass about me but I keep trying, I use what I can to my advantage. I might make it big someday, then again I'll most likely die penny less. But I try, I never give up and I don't whine about other folks being rich, if anything I try to learn from them.
Implied rules?? Give me an example please.

One implication is that if you make a ton of money in this country, you reinvest it here, not in some account in the Caymans. You kooks always tout trickle-down economics, but do you really understand how that was supposed to work? (It didn't, by the way.)
Laissez-faire capitalism is a failed experiment. Given the chance, the fatcats always run off with the money, leaving taxpayers on the hook for all the infrastructure costs of doing business.
