Are the Jews and Capitalists really to blame for all our troubles?
But it must be said. So what’s new? As Tom Leher noted ” everybody hates the Jews.”
Jews are hardworking, well-educated and successful (by and large) SO they must be stealing more than their share of the pie so say the anti-Semites.
I have always believed (unlike Marx) that inventors, innovators, producers of goods and services, financial and business managers WHO MAKE MONEY and WHO CREATE WEALTH deserve, in most cases) they money they make and the wealth they create benefits society.
In my own hum drum life I have achieved modest investments and a modest estate but by George I EARNED IT THROUGH SAVINGS, THROUGH SMART INVESTMENTS and HARD WORK.
I never had it easy. As a first generation American I had no great inherited wealth and most importantly no ins or connections to help me along.
But it never occurred to me to blame others. If I couldn’t get a decent job in NYC or Washington DC I decided to move and try other things which is what I did. I didn’t sleep on my mother’s couch and cry in my beer and hate and resent “all the Jews”.
I thought, instead, ” What decisions are friends and acquaintances making that I could emulate? What am I doing that is insufficient or wrong? ”
Jonathan Tobin Great article.
AND KEEP SAYING IT. Maybe a few people will wake up and take charge of their OWN COUNTRIES and their OWN LIVES.
