  1. Cota is an awesome track to visit. We went to watch the v8 super cars in may, and loved it!

    I recommend buying general admission, there are a lot of good places to post up in the grass. (Especially for those who are easily mobile)

  2. The thing everyone needs to understand is that not every person is given the same opportunities. A very small percentage of people are born with a golden spoon in their mouth. The thing is, you have to dedicate 2-4 years of your life living like shit and in poverty if you're not born in the upper class. After you suffer your 2-4 years of shit life getting a degree, or some certificate, you can then START to move on to living a better life. Yes, you will still struggle to pay off student loans and what not, but they will eventually be paid off, and you will be able to make a decent living if you live within your means. America is not a land of equal opportunity, but it is a land of opportunity, and everyone is dealt a different hand...It just depends on how you play that hand.

     

    All of that being said, I am not making an excuse for lazy people on welfare. I can rationalize and understand that when you're born into generations of poverty, and all you know is to rely on other people to live, it does make it much tougher, but it does not justify it completely. We are humans that have the ability to think and make choices and understand what is right and wrong. That is why I don't justify laziness, but at the end of the day, I know if I work hard and get to where I want to be and live within my means, I won't have to worry about what the lower class is doing.

     

    AMEN

  3. BTW I'm ok stating I'm not educated enough to solve the issues, or smart enough to understand everything. But it's hard to ignore some facts put in front of you. I don't claim to be an expert in anyway shape or form.

     

    My Opinion is it's disgusting 2 out of every 10 people in this country hold 93% of the wealth. I'm not going to argue in this thread, my goal here is to maybe have some small percentage of members here just watch the long videos and think about them. That is all.

     

    Why does this disgust you? If you want your piece, take it. Granted, some people have a much easier time than others, but often that's because someone in their lineage did work hard, or made a good investment. I'm sorry yours didn't, neither did mine. But I hope to change that for my children and grandchildren.

    I'll tell you right now , the way to make that happen isn't "redistribution" of wealth By the government!

  4. I can't see the info right now as I don't have good data at work, so there may be some good info, but....

    Why does your money need to come from the rich? It may be difficult, but you can still bust your ass in this country and make some serious money. It may not be easy, and not much fun, but if you want to rise above the lower middle Class then you have to work harder.

    Not a knock to anyone, I just still believe that I can work hard and achieve what I want regardless how much of it the government wants to take.
