John Oliver did a pretty similar piece on her.

Yeah, it is curious that some conservative politicians hold her up in such high regard. My guess is the majority of conservatives don't know much about her.

but your "awesomeness" was "given" to you...
YOU DIDN'T BUILD THAT!
It's funny how they eventually believe the bullsh*t they parrot. the lie repeated often enough doesn't become the truth, it becomes the bullsh*t you believe because you've said it so often.

You assume too much.
People who are wealthy often think it is strictly because of their superior self and not due to environment or luck. That is what it means. It's not some weird communist thing.

More accurately, they probably attribute it to strict fiscal discipline.
In the vast majority of cases, people who are wealthy are known as prodigious accumulators of wealth. They spend less than they earn. They are planners and meticulous budgeters. They avoid buying status objects or leading a status lifestyle. They invest their money for good returns, and will consider riskier investments if they're worth the reward. Many put money not only in the stock market, but invest in private businesses and venture capital. They do not gamble or speculate on long-odds stocks.
