Years ago the demoncrats push through a luxury tax on yachts. Killed the yacht manufacturing. People lost jobs. Liberals just don’t get real economics.

Liberals just don’t get real economics.

"Wealth" is not something that you can "spread around" like butter on toast or manure on a corn field, else, it ceases to be wealth and becomes "spoils" or "booty". The libs see everything as belonging to them, and thus is theirs to distribute to the masses at their whim. They DO NOT like individual achievement and will stomp it out with full vigor, little realizing that it is individual achievement that has gotten them where they are. Imagine, if you would, talking to some lib Oscar winner and saying that they should give up their Oscar for individual achievement in their profession and giving it to the grips and gaffers, food service and cosmetics people, after all THEY worked hard, too. I doubt the actor or actress would be very willing to do that............
