She hires excellent social media writers. Trump should try to poach some of them.

Jan 18, 2019, 10:19 AM

would be a start. Certainly we do not want all the wealthy people in the PnR to have to pay in more all at once. But if you compare the lists of the happiest countries and the lowest crime rates with the the ones that have the most income equality, there is a direct correlation.


but hey, I can understand that most of the posters in here are 1%ers and are merely speaking in their own self interest, and NOT the self interest of others. I mean that would be dumb to lobby for a class of people that could give two shiits about you.

Jan 18, 2019, 10:22 AM

doesn't matter.

That does sound like an absolute though. "Either you are a 1%'er and you're for them, or not a 1%'er and against them."

How many poor men have you worked for?

Technically I am working for one right now. He is cash poor and is spent other people's money to start up this company. That is the funny thing, having access to capital and having capital are two entirely different things. And my efforts alone pay his salary, his brothers salary, who I am still trying to figure what he does here, and that of our marketing director. It is quite a challenge and a responsibility I have to all of them. But to say that the CEO's personal take home income has any bearing on the success of this company is laughable.

company, but it sure sounds like it has a bearing on whether you can reliably expect to receive paychecks from him in the long term.

The industrialists back in the day were outrageously wealthy too, yet most of their employees lived in squalor. Think about Andrew Carnegie and the steel industry. Yes wealthy people provide the jobs, but we can be practical and rational. Teachers don't make enough imo.

Hopefully we will experience a Great Leap Forward!

Those industrialists sure took the country in the wrong direction. My God, think about all the terrible economic growth between Reconstruction and the 1950's. It is a crime we let Carnegie, Rockefeller, JP Morgan, and Henry Ford get away with murder. When the US noticed all the unequal income, we should have made the fair decision, instead of continuing to greedily promote national economic growth. Think of all the suffering that could have been prevented.

I prefer what China did under Mao, or maybe what the Soviet Union did under the Bolsheviks. Instead of caving to rich people, they stood up for the people and let values and morality trump pandering to the rich. At every fork in the road they chose ideals over practicality. And history clearly demonstrates the reward.

Good points. Seems like some want to go backwards. Anyone who wants to protect workers is labeled a socialist.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Is it insane for me to say that we are protecting workers?


Jan 18, 2019, 11:08 AM

Is it insane to say that if our goal is to empower the government to attempt to remove all unfairness in our society, that we may do more harm than good?

It is very possible. Give them an inch and they will take a mile. It's a slippery slope on both sides.
