Just a counterpoint to ''If you work hard'' etc...and if you don't you deserve all you get. I've worked hard, won't say I'm not stupid, but the millions haven't come my way. Mainly because I didn't go looking for them. Funny how people don't fit stereotypes.
And the not looking for millions is something the vast majority do. We have other aims and ambitions. Maybe that is the bit the few that do have that drive will just never understand. But putting it down to a failure to work hard and sacrifice is just plain wrong.

If you consider that cheese paring on production and design is essential, and warranty service is a shockingly expensive bit of tomfoolery, or "As Seen On TV" is highly motivating, it is obvious that ACT or Nat is your promised land. Just remember, ACT leaders may have the courage of their convictions, and Nat leaders come and go with the wind changes, but their big sponsors rate anybody without a tax-free income above 6 figures as a serf. Snollygosters are not always (or ever) the least biased of news sources.
But surely, when repeated polls from different sources, and different research reports all suggest the same thing it is then incumbent upon leadership to follow that direction? Or is for the people by the people just another bit of marketing?
