Hat tip to JLF pal Jerry Agar for this link:

Just recently, at a public forum, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton made the ?observation? that America was not built by the rich.

I want to take a minute to offer a different perspective.

You see, many of us love to ?criticize? in our Monday morning quarterback roles, but the decision makers are the risk takers. They are the ones who step out and trust their innermost instincts. They are the ones who provide the jobs for people like me.

I guess what I am trying to say is, I thank the rich of America. You have made us the greatest nation on the face of the earth.

Not all of us are unappreciative. Don?t be intimidated by a bunch of jealous fools, and please continue to invest in people like me.
