Start with two people. Bob has $10. Bill has $20. A ten dollar difference. In year one, both Bob and Bill have wealth growth of ten percent.
Bob now has $11. Bill has $22. An eleven dollar difference. The rich get richer.
“Bob now has $11. Bill has $22. An eleven dollar difference. The rich get richer.”
That’s a fun game to play. But the reality is, executive pay, the top 10%, went up to 350 times that of the average worker in 2005. That’s up from 122 times in 1990 and 74 times in 1950.
I know the freeper line is, if that’s what they want, that’s ok, they’re running things.
Yep, and that’s one of the reasons we have a creep like Obama as President.
And it will happen again, if some level of restraint isn’t in play.
My dad always said, “It takes money to make money.”
People can't seem to get past the "but he has more". And what really blows their minds is when Bob goes to Wawa and buys a hoagie, chips, gum and soda and his money is gone but Bill goes to the supermarket, buys the meat, bread, big bottle of store brand soda and chips and has food for the week and money left over.
Oh those "poor people"
ps you may substitute "buys a hoagie, chips, gum and soda " with buys "a chor-boy and a rose"
