So when we received the following tongue in cheek condemnation of the players on the PGA Tour, we knew the author had hit pay dirt. Outrageous, yes, but it did indeed point out the ridiculousness of the movement. The same comments could be made for other pro sports such as the NBA, the NFL, and Major League Baseball.
All the players who make it in these sports are very talented and put in hours of work to get where they are. That is also true for the 1%. Very few of these men and women inherited their way into this elite club, they worked hard, made good choices and yes maybe, had some luck. Think about Warren Buffett, Rush Limbaugh, Steve Jobs, Oprah Winfrey and Sam Walton, who are all or were members of this group. None were born with a silver spoon in their mouths, most were fired from jobs (a couple were fired from many), but all made a significant impact on the world.
The spoiled brats that make up the Occupy Movement are not willing to put in the time or energy to do what it takes to become successful. They find it easier to demand that society give them whatever they desire. This is a sad day in America when some are no longer are willing to strive and feel empowered to demand that the rest of us give them what they want.

It isn't fair that those players who have worked harder, have studied the game, have better equipment and are stronger and more skilled should make all that money. Oh sure, they have their charities that they give millions of dollars to, but I am sure that they write all that off on their tax returns to reduce paying their fair share. Is that fair?
They should pay for my golf, buy me new equipment and share their winnings. The whole system should be changed to accommodate people like me!!Occupy the PGA Tour!!
PS: The above should not in any way be construed as a criticism aimed at members of the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement who are simply demanding their "right" to be as rich as those who have taken chances, studied, & worked their asses off to get there.
