This guy has no clue that "wealth" is income that you don't spend.

People who spend every cent they can get their hands on will never have "wealth," no matter how much "redistributing" you do.

And "wealth" is not the same thing as disposable income for entertainment and toys. "Wealth" is investment.

The perfect example is NBA players who have all kinds of disposable income for hoes and bling while they are playing, and nothing five years after they retire.

You can't fix stupid, no matter how much of the non-stupids' money you steal and redistribute.

This was the point I was going to make.

If you take the so-called logic of some on the left that advocate and profess that "Profit" is somehow wrong or evil, and ask them if "Individuals" should be "allowed to SAVE" money, their position changes.

Corporate profits are the same as individual savings.

I agree. I watched some of the report and thought I’d be sick so I shut it down.

Why is ANYONE concerned over what someone else has? If the money was earned or even inherited and no laws were broken, I say good for the rich.

Whiners who covet the wealth of others and believe it is the cause of their own lack of money are sad, pathetic and imo contemptable people.

As a friend puts it: it’s not what you make, it’s what you spend.
