Level the FIELD - don’t try to ‘level the players’. Don’t break the legs of some and give motor cycles to others - just the DAMN FIELD. LEVEL THE FIELD NOT THE PLAYERS...

“...a third of the US population makes less than $25,000 per year...”

the cruel reality is that these people aren’t worth more than that to their employer. if the were, they’d get more from that employer or another one.

Sooner or later somebody wants to be the boss of you.

My income has been driving in reverse for the last 50 years...

Started in the Upper Middle Class straight out of college. Owned two major hotel parking lot concessions.

Moved into the Middle Class in 2000-2001 and 2008, after all my high risk technology stocks got crushed.

Moved into the Lower Middle Class when I started drawing Social Security and dropped out of the work force at age 70.

“But Liberals don’t want cures...they want to create a class of people who are dependent upon their ability to take income from the productive members of society and give it to the less productive members. They do this because those dependent people will vote for them....”

Amen.

Well Said

You are supposed to label vanity posts with a “vanity” tag in the title. Having said that, this is the best vanity post I think I’ve read on FR. Thanks for sharing.

“Bezos... plowed those funds back into his company and grew the business. So, until those Liberals each feed, clothe, and house over 250,000 people, tell them to sit down and STFU. It is the rich who create new jobs, promote economic growth, and provide the means for poor people to move up in the distribution of income table.”

Bezos currently employs over 1.5 Million people through Amazon. (He has other companies also.) No telling how many members of his team have gone on to start other companies that employed many more.

This is why I argue that the key to solving our national debt issue is to make a bigger pie. AI has the potential to do this by making all of us 100 times more productive. That is wealth creation, and the whole world can benefit from it.
