Ashton Kutcher Will Lose Liberal Friends After This Speech

Ashton Kutcher said, "Opportunities look a lot like hard work" in a speech at the Teen Choice Awards recently.

As we all know, liberals are seeking a nanny state where "hard work" is no longer rewarded. Ashton Kutcher will probably pay the price with liberal Hollywood for telling the truth but, hey, the truth hurts sometimes. Yes, opportunity DOES look a lot like hard work and is a lesson that nanny-state liberals need to listen to.



NOTE TO LIBERALS: You may not want to watch the video since it's filled with the truth and, as such, is contrary to your dogma.

 

Hey, stupid liberals! It looks like it's time to throw your U2 albums in the trash, too:

Just recently drawing upon his Christian faith (and possibly the economics influence of Professor Ayittey?), in a speech at Georgetown University, Bono altered his economic and political views and declared that only capitalism can end poverty.​

​

“Aid is just a stopgap,” he said. “Commerce [and] entrepreneurial capitalism take more people out of poverty than aid. We need Africa to become an economic powerhouse.”​

​

Bono encouraged students to think of what they can do to support those in Africa and other developing nations that are in need of justice and comfort.​

​

He compared the effort to how St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Society of Jesus, made his commitment to serve others.​

​

“That’s what I’m hoping happens here at Georgetown with you,” he said. “Because when you truly accept that those children in some far off place in the global village have the same value as you in God’s eyes or even in just your eyes, then your life is forever changed, you see something that you can’t un-see.”​

​

C.S. Lewis well understood the fallacy and indeed evil of statism in addressing the pains and suffering of our world, and we welcome Bono’s new insights into the matter. And Professor Ayittey’s incisive work can also be found in the Independent Institute book, Making Poor Nations Rich: Entrepreneurship and the Process of Economic Development, edited by Benjamin Powell.​

#1 Opportunity, #2 Being sexy, #3 Living life? You go cracker. Be as sexy as you are. We'll sit back and watch.

 

Now, there's no need to call Ashton Kutcher a racist name.

 

Uh.. yeah. So? What does this have to do with Obama? Ashton Kutcher is probably going to catch hell from all the Hollywood liberals. What's your point?

 

But he sees people in 3 categories - the oppressed, the racists, and himself.

 

Stay sexy....

Ashton Kutcher vs. Wal-Mart: Epic Twitter clash rages over poverty wages

Kutcher slams retailer: “You should be proud of your associates but I’m not sure if they should be proud of you”

Celebrity actor/producer Ashton Kutcher and retail giant Wal-Mart had a spirited Twitter debate Tuesday over Wal-Mart workers’ wages.
Kutcher (@aplusk) kicked off the dust-up by tweeting about the news that an Ohio Wal-Mart took up an employee-to-employee food charity collection “so Associates in Need can enjoy Thanksgiving dinner.” He wrote, “Walmart is your profit margin so important you can’t Pay Your Employees enough to be above the poverty line?”
Fourteen minutes later, the company’s @WalmartNewsroom account, echoing its replies to others on the topic, tweeted back at Kutcher, “It’s unfortunate that an act of human kindness has been taken so out of context. We’re proud of our associates in Canton.” After 10 minutes, Kutcher shot back, “you should be proud of your associates but I’m not sure if they should be proud of you.”
Wal-Mart then offered Kutcher a video on “Opportunity and Benefits at Walmart,” saying, “We know you believe in opportunity like we do & we’d love to talk to you more about it.”
Kutcher quickly countered, “you had 17 billion in profits last year. You’re a 260 billion$ company. What are we missing?”
That set off a trio of tweets from Wal-Mart, starting with, “We think you’re missing a few things,” and then touting that “The majority of our workforce is full-time and makes more than $25,000/year”; that “about 75% of our store management teams started as hourly associates”; and that “every year, we promote about 160,000 people…”
Kutcher told Wal-Mart the company “does a lot of great things but it needs to be a leader on this issue as well.” In its final tweet to Kutcher – so far — Wal-Mart answered, “We know we can always get better as a company. This year we’ve made providing more opportunities for our associates a top priority.”
Kutcher returned to the topic an hour later, linking a blog post on a study estimating the cost of Wal-Mart workers’ use of public assistance, and saying “Walmart should be the leaders not the low water mark.”

 

Now you're silent on poor old Ashton? I guess now he is going to lose all his brand new Right-wing hypocrite friends.

 

The difference between you and Ashton Kutcher (or the "cracker" as you call him) is that he says what he wants to say regardless of any political dogma. You, on the other hand, are just a forked-tongue, mealy-mouthed partisan hack. I may not always agree with someone's viewpoint, but I respect them if they speak from the heart. You speak from your ass. I respect someone who has the courage of his convictions which, obviously, Mr. Kutcher has. You wouldn't know courage if it bit you.
