    Really?!?! He can afford a 40,000 foot private $#@!ing castle with his own draw-bridge, but he has to layoff the delivery boy making 7 $#@!ing dollars an hour, because he can't afford an extra 14 cents on his pizzas?!?! That's really your story, and you're stickin to it?!?!?
    You don't get to vote for the party that supported, and legislated government forced vaginal probes, and then claim to oppose Obama because he represents "increased government control, and power".

    You're not very smart if I have to explain this to you, but here goes: it's not ONE delivery boy and ONE 14 cents. It's thousands of employees nationwide and hundreds of thousands of pizzas. It's the American success story to get rich on a good business idea and WORK for that dream. He built that business and his house and grounds are none of your business.

    Yes, he can afford it and it's his right to spend his money as he sees fit. He built that business and those profits are HIS. Btw, everyone who worked on the construction and maintenance of his property was or is an employee and had or has a job connected to that property.

    Sir, you blew your cred showing your ignorance, and you belittle yourself with your gratuitous profanity.

    And the pizza restaurant owner built his own ovens, and he built the electrical grid that supplies power, and he built chairs and tables, and poured the foundation for which the building was erected. And then he built the building, using nails that he himself forged, and using tools that he himself made.

    Then he built a farm and harvested wheat, to make the dough that he would use. And he grew the vegetables in his back yard, and raised and slaughtered chickens, and cows, and took the meat, and with his own bare hands ground it up into toppings used on the pizza.

    Then he fabricated his own boxes and handpainted the logos on each and every box that would be used to deliver his pizzas.
    Then he, with his own unique ability was able to deliver those pizzas himself, using a car, that he himself also constructed, out of parts that he himself also made, from raw materials, which he hiimself extracted from vairious and remote places around the USA.

    Tell you what? Let's go extreme here. You're talking "hundreds of thousands". I think you're wrong. I think Papa John's is more popular than that. Even accounting for 14 million pizzas, at 14 cents a pizza, that only accounts for a n increase of $1.96 million dollars. Hmm...the guy owns a 40,000 ft castle, with it's own oat, 22 car garage, private lake, tennis court, and golf course. I might be stretching it a little, but I don't think he's $#@!ting himself over a million bucks.

    What he claims is a lie. He can afford it. He just chooses to throw a temper tantrum, and punish people that he knows can't defend themselves because he didn't get his way.

    And again, you intentionally miss the point. You keep wanting to make this about "jealousy". I don't give a rats ass about his stuff. But to piss and moan about a 14 cent manufacturing increase when he is obviously as well off as he is is a lie. And it is a lie that those of us who really do have to budget our bills to the degree that an unexpected 14 cent expense could mean the difference between having lights, and not having lights find offensive.

    Don't forget, without him those people wouldn't have jobs at all. The only reason they have jobs is because he's wealthy.
    Without the wealthy people here to pay you, you Liberals wouldn't have a pot to pee in. That's the problem.

    For some reason, in your mind, being rich is an alternative to a free lifestyle. To a Lib, if you're rich, you don't get to live free. They get to put restrictions on the rich because how dare you have more money than someone who doesn't work and collects money from the government.

    And without the working class you would have no one to make the $#@! that makes you wealthy. you seem to forget that is a two way street. This is not a parasitic relationship, it is a symbiotic one. But you keep wanting to act like the host, carrying us disgusting parasites out of the kindness of your hearts.

    I apologize again, since the post you quoted, allegedly written by GrumpyDog, was in response to Trinnity, and should have been a direct reply to that quote, and would have, except that GD was of the opinion that a direct reference, if taken the wrong way by a moderator, might result in dog treats being removed, thus resulting in GD becoming a deprived dog like Awryly.

    It occurs to me that you must be a confused conservative, who would like to become progressive, but for fear that progressivism leads to fiscal irresponsiblity.
