This guy never fails to amaze me, just incredible

[Dr. Shane]

Today Rush was also claiming that Steve Jobs' success was a rebuke of Elizabeth Warren. As if Steve Jobs never hired anyone educated in public schools or ever shipped any merchandise on a public road.

The guy is a little goofy. You just can't take him seriously.

[lazarus]

I actually do think that a series of riots is probably where this will end up. Somebody is going to get their head cracked or shot and then the anger will boil over. I think we'll see this spread from city to city.

Obama has nothing to do with it but of course he will be blamed.

Bet Steve Jobs had paid for the educated ones he hired out of the public schools.Bet he paid a sizable portion for that merchandise on that public road.

Bet over the years he paid far more than anyone here and provided far more jobs

Many people think the same and have since this began.It is hardly something that only Rush thinks .

Locally most I know,and democrats as well have been saying same and that it is rather obvious

Certainly not the first people he hired. In fact, he probably hired many that didn't even go to public school in the school district he lived in. No one get rich on their own. Not even Steve Jobs.

Rush is off his rocker.

As far as I have read he did not whine and cry like those protesting on Wall Street. He did not have "your college degree".Who cares who he hired or what district they went to school at? The fact remains that he certainly paid his way,made it possible for many others to do same.He did not use public school gradutes that "others" had paid for and he had not.He didn't use roads that others had paid for that he had not.

Depends on what you mean by getting rich on his own. He pursued something,produced it and created a demand.Those that worked for him did not do so as a favor to him,those that paid taxes did not provide roads for him that he did not pay for as well.Without his dream,energy and hard work there would not have been any employment or any demand for the product.He owed you and those like you nothing but a product as represented and the agreed upon wage.

[bonnie]

As for Rush being off his rocker,who are you to render that judgement?

It would be a kindness to say those Wall Street protesters are of their rockers.

They are nothing but parasites,demanding free education,free medical,and all debts wiped out.So far that is the bulk of what I have heard,at least from those that can articulate their demands somewhat coherently.

But those are the individuals Obama needs.He needs more and more in the wagon or trying to bring the country totally to it's knees financially as he whines and cries and tries his best to complete what he has started

[Dr. Shane]

At the time that Steve Jobs started, no college degree would have helped him. He was an inventor - like Thomas Edison. A business degree may have helped him make even more money than he did. He never really captured much market share until the past decade.

My comments about a college degree have been in the context of political commentators talking about economic theories. None of the three big, conservative, talking heads have a college degree and are not qualified to tell us who we should be voting for.

No one gets rich on their own. Steve Jobs was a liberal. He understood that. Not even Rush Limbaugh got rich on his own.

I am certainly not talking about wealth on my part but when I started a online business from home,I have already spent years paying in advance for any services I use.I have spent years educating those public school students that may have something to do with my sales along the way. You did not pay for me,you did not create the demand,the buyer is not buying as a favor to me,you have not purchased my equipment.

In terms of what I owe you or anyone on that score is a big fat ZERO

[Dr. Shane]

How much do you think the internet infrastructure is worth that we use? All the fiber optic cable, satellites, equipment, towers, buildings and the power grid system used to power it?

I have no idea and it doesnt matter. None of that was done to provide a free gift.Those are not built as a favor to Steve Jobs or anyone else.There was a demand created by a product produced anf that spawned other endeavors that were charged for.

When I pay for the infrastructure and services of this country

and pay more than those that don't pay at all I have a right to it's use. If I am a small business owner that has paid in yearly and with what I buy,and given quite a large sum over the years to those not paying at all I have earned the right to it's use.

I have a right to use the paramedics and such.Not only have I paid and continue to pay my dues regarding that,I paid quite handsomely for the need to call them.

The rest of the country did not pay to provide it for the business owner that has not.The business owner has already paid and continues to pay

[Dr. Shane]

Originally the internet was built by the government. The private sector has added much to it. No one individual or company has put into it what they have gotten out of it. No one gets rich on their own. That is pretty much the same principle with our entire infrastructure. We all put in a little, some more than others, and we all benefit more than what we actually put in. Government makes that happen. No one gets rich on their own.

Do you believe this is all spontaneous and without planning?

I know there are lots of people who want this to result in riots, and they would like to see pictures of police cracking heads like they did in Chicago in 1968. They had the same plan in Denver in 2008, but it didn't happen because the police were prepared for them. There's no doubt that many of the same people who were at Denver in 2008 are taking part in New York City. They make no secret of their plans and strategies. I hope it doesn't happen, but I won't be surprised if it does.

People are like water,they seek their own level.Look at some of the active supporters.Look how the unions are gaining ground they have not had for years.Look at Obama's promise to "transform America".Look at the trouble Obama is in for re-election.Nothing like a good crisis to gin up support.He valiently struggles to "create jobs" while sticking it to the very ones that do so.

People are rightfully and genuinely angry with the banks and corporations. There will always be a bad element who want trouble. There police are there (Wall) street to protect business and do what they are told so sooner or later a mistake will be made. It sad but often violence make people sit up and listen.

[Dr. Shane]

If a small business owner has lived on the moon,never paid taxes and will not continue to pay taxes he is using what others have provided.

That sounds as bizarre as some of the things Rush has been saying recently. No one is saying that rich people don't have a right to use tax-payer infrastructure or hire tax-payer educated people. What is clearly obviously is that they need it and they didn't pay for it all by themselves. No one gets rich on their own.
