They had the house built. They did not get 20 million. Their lawyers got 35%, the government takes at least that amount and what was remaining they had to share with other employees who were suing. They would be lucky to get anything after everyone else took their share of the jack pot.

They thought of themselves as rich enough to build and maintain that house. They were not. Alot of poor people who win money lose everything due to a math deficit and an immediate gratification problem.

Poor people are poor because of what they do. Most people in this country have the same opportunity to get rich as anyone else. BUT if you go for instant gratification and make repeated bad life decisions, then you're going to be poor. Giving poor people money doesn't change how they act. The do the same things that they did to be poor in the first place, the money goes away, and they really don't have a clue as to what happened to it.

Democrats foster the egalitarian myth that everyone is as good as everyone else. Not true. The small business owner who puts in 100 hours a week deserves every penny he earns. The welfare brood sow, the morbidly obese person on disability because they weight 600lb, all with the bone deep sense of entitlement don't deserve a penny of what the government steals for them. I really resent having to pay out my hard earned dollars for my health care AND the health carse of some jerk who spent every cent he ever received before the next welfare check arrived.

Continuing on that theme, 0bama and Biden aren't the problem, they're the symptom for a huge class of lazy worthless people who feel that someone owes them a living, and not jsut a living, but a good lifestyle with a free cell phone, free housing, free healthcare, free food, free transportation, etc. These a$$holes are the problem, and there isn't any immediate solution.
