FACT: INCOME INEQUALITY HASN'T CHANGED SINCE 1986.
FACT: THE WEALTHY WERE ACTUALLY HARDEST HIT BY THE RECENT CRASH AND RECESSION - LOSING A MUCH HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF THEIR WEALTH THAN MIDDLE INCOME OR LOW INCOME PEOPLE.
THAT'S WHY CLASS WARFARE WON'T WORK FOR OBAMA - IT'S A HOAX THE PEOPLE AREN'T BUYING.
I'm glad to know that people know it. It is an idea which is implicitly true in all areas of life.
ReplyDeleteThe riches man may have a million dollars, or a billion dollars, or a trillion dollars. But, the poorest man will always have zero dollars.
Likewise, the fastest man may go 10 mph, or 100 mph, or 1000 mph, but the slowest man will always go 0 mph.
An economy in which it is possible for a man to become rich is going to grow, and will provide abundance for all. An economy in which no one can become rich, is one in which everyone will always be poor.
