Do the 47% really exist? With a country full of a variety of people that work in the fields of business, education, finance, government, military, food services, construction and engineering, wouldn’t it make sense that we all need each other to sustain this country and sustain ourselves to live happy and prosperous. When Mitt Romney made that comment he should have mentioned the 100% percent instead of 47% because we all need each other to sustain our lives to be truly happy. Did he forget that he was talking about me; a US Army veteran did two tours to Iraq? Am I not contributing enough to society Mitt Romney? I go to school with the Post 911 GI Bill, my medical comes from the VA and hope that one day I can contribute a lot more to society with a business that I want to build with the help of the US.
I have always respected anyone who makes millions and even billions of dollars a year, people who built there wealth through hard work. But don’t forget that there were teachers that taught you, military forces that defended your freedom and a government that provided a stable
country to give you all of the tools you needed to succeed in a free society. We are and will always be a capitalistic society but one that does not just grow without the tools needed to succeed. There are government backed business loans, a post office to help us transport our mail, student loans that give us the opportunity to become lawyers, doctors and financiers. I am not sure where Mitt Romney was coming from with his 47% comment because last time I checked I belong to the 100% American category.
