Kitty man just need to grow up and stop making enemies of good people with his egotistic kiss my butt attitude. That's why he's begging. He think the world owes him something and nobody want to be bothered with him. He's a taker. So whatever you give means nothing. He'll only demand more.

Did you apply this reasoning and logic to the big banks when they marched to Washington and begged for bailout money in 2008?

That is not the way you chose to interpret it when you described the poor beggar as "egoistic", a "taker", and that "the world owes him something".
Why is it so hard for you to apply those same adjectives to describe rich powerful people like the Wall Street CEOs who begged, and received, social assistance from taxpayers like you?

Why are you so defensive of a taker but attacking politicians for the same thing?

The man Chairman described didn't take anything. He asked for it. It was up to Chairman to decide if he wanted to give him anything at all. So I have no idea why you choose to describe the beggar as "a taker".
Contrast this with the Wall Street CEOs in 2008. They demanded the government bail them out. They then took your tax money and gave themselves huge bonuses and bought out smaller banks in an orgy of spending. Those are takers.

Okay,
So are you saying that because of politicians that people should beg from each other?
Listen, there's nothing I can do about people begging, but when they ask me, the answer is no.
