"How do politicians who arrive in Washington, D.C., as men and women of modest means leave as millionaires? How do they miraculously accumulate wealth at a rate faster than the rest of us?"

________________________________________________

"Accumlate wealth faster than the rest of us"?

This from the woman who made $10-12 million within two years after quitting?

How can she say this without gagging? How can you post it without laughing?

Did she make that $12 million from shady backroom deals, bribes, corruption and/or insider trading as a public servant? Or was she a private citizen paid for her books, speeches, opinions, etc.? Kinda apples and oranges, isn’t it, FRiend?

Since your stupidity and hatred is so obvious I will have pitty and explain calmly that "the rest of us" means all of us. Generalities have exceptions. She is one who earned a lot of money fast but HONESTLY with her hard work, and God knows she did work hard days after days to promote conservatives and yes, her own books. That's called capitalism. NOT CRONY capitalism.

See, I said it calmly so with a bit of hope that will sink in..

Get lost, PDS troll.
She made her money all by herself: she earned it.

Sarah Palin earned her money honestly. She told her story AND IT WAS HER STORY. She marketed her ideas that she spent a lifetime developing.(and there was a market for it)

Something that you and others don't know about the Palins(and many other people) is that their wealth isn't measured in money. Judging by the way some here fixate on money, I imagine they have a hard time understanding that view.

Umm..do you know the difference between making money legally(as in writing a book about one's life(Palin)), and making money illegally(as in using insider information to profit from stock trades like your pal Nancy Pelosi did)?
You PDS sufferers don't seem to have any sense do ya?
