    Life is not fair. And the people that try to make it fair usually end up making it more unfair.

    Cut all the umbrellas in half and give half to the poor. Eazy-peazy.

    “A rising tide floats all boats” is what rich people with boats say.

    It’s not “some people.” It’s a tiny handful of people are ultra-rich and own 90% of everything. Most people are dirt poor. A small and shrinking percentage of us are middle-class.

    The way I heard this one, it went:

    It rains somewhere most every day,

    On all the just and unjust fellas.

    But mostly on the just,

    Because the unjust have the just’s umbrellas.

    What “Trickle-on Economics” fans fail to acknowledge is that wealth does not flow down river to the rest of us. The rich build a dam and go swimming in the reservoir.

    Some might say something idiotic like “make the choices that the wealthy do.” Haha! How can someone choose to be born into wealth? M-usk’s father owned an emerald mine, did M-usk choose to be born his son? T-rump’s dad had money, so I guess t-rump chose to be born in that family, huh? Sure, make the choice to be born in a rich family??? Or make the choice to not have an economic system which oppresses huge groups of people? With only a few rare exceptions, the wealthy are not rich because of their personal choices, they are rich because they were born into privilege or they were born into a class that has historically been favored by a corrupt system.

    “The rain it raineth on the just

    And also on the unjust fella;

    But chiefly on the just, because

    The unjust hath the just’s umbrella."

    Shakespeare once said, I cried when I had no shoes, But I stopped crying when I saw a man without legs…! life is full of blessings, sometime we don’t value it.

    Oh give me a freaking break. You get out of life what you put into. I served 6 years in the Navy during Vietnam, worked hard at my job for 32 years after. People call me lucky, NO it was hard work to get where I am. Had H.S. classmates that peaked in H.S., and coasted their adult life. Now they have little to nothing to show for those years. Well again, you get out of life what you put into. Quit your dang whining and live with what you created.

    In the proverb, originating in agrarian societies, rain is a good thing. It makes the crops grow. If god cared very much about “justice” it would be extremely easy for him to keep rain from falling on the croplands of the wicked. Which would probably do more to call humankind into the pale of Religion than any number of eloquent sermons.

    She’s just jealous because he is wearing a helmet. This is a version of an umbrella.

    There’s a business opportunity for someone “just” to make some umbrellas and sell them and make money in the same manner that made many of the “unjust” families rich. The only problematic “unjust” are those that get there because they have ties to government and an unfair advantage because of those ties.

    The unjust demand that others pay for their umbrella policies, while the rich collect the rain, and sell it, thus acquiring liquid assets!
