Obama said: "If you were successful, somebody along the
line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your
life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that
we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and
bridges. If you've got a business -- you didn't build that. ...
The point is, is that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together."

HI, Robert.
ReplyDeleteYou're so right. I loved the argument that we all drive the same streets and bridges but only Steve JObs, for example, invented the iPod! WE couldn't!
What bothered me most about Obama's amazing declaration was when he went on and slammed people because "you think you're smart!"...that REALLY was hard to swallow and he's lucky people didn't focus on THAT!
