ah yes...the old "the rich are the producers" explanation....

In "Rich Dad....Poor Dad" a book that I hated....his big schtick was that you can't be a wage earner and get rich....you have to speculate, and borrow, and borrow and speculate to get ahead...that may all be true....

but the millions upon millions that basically do the grunt work for this economy shouldn't be punished for it.....

maybe not all of us grow up hoping to scheme our way into a billion bucks...maybe most of us just wanted a decent life with family....and we're getting creamed for it...
