Many in America, poor and otherwise, do favor redistributing wealth. That’s why they vote Democrat.
They know it would be quickly redistributed away from them, largely due to their own decisions.....
Because they know it would be bad for them.
Because the poor ASPIRE to be affluent one day!
Because “redistribution” is such a big word?
Maybe they hope to be rich some day?
If you have a good year, and you make a $million, you would think you would be set for life (or at least a few years)
But at 90% tax rate, the GOVERNMENT gets most of that, and next year you have to go right back to work, hoping you come up with ANOTHER Million dollar idea.
The elites are trying everything they can think of to dilute the productive voters in our country to a minority.
Ask the question again, this time making it clear who’s wealth is being distributed.
Who says the poor don’t redistribute from others to themselves. There is EBT, WIC, Welfare, falsified disability claims, falsified tax returns using the child credit.
They have free insurance through Obamacare where the middle class gets a 200% or more bump in prices to pay for them.
There is government overpaid employment and retirement on the taxpayer, another welfare of sorts.
It’s all distribution.
What “ IS “ wealth?..
I have little money but am not POOR..
So wealth is not money?
I am RICH just by being an American.....
Most of the world does not have clean running water at their finger tips..
I can take a Hot bath/shower whenever I want to.. in water clean enough to drink..
I can have all the FOOD I need or want..
Clothing is not an issue thrift stores have clothing for pennies..
Having a residence is not a problem..
Health Care is available even for the poor.. ALWAYS WAS..
The internet is extremely common even for the poor..
I can call literally anyone from a cellphone..
Even our pets have it better than most people in the world..
Americans whining about poverty is OBSCENE.. UNGratiful.. WRONG..
AND SHOULD BE DEPORTED.. forced to leave.. with NO American riches..
Only with the clothing on their BACKS... and cannot come back for 10 years.. if at all..
“Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat, but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires”
Often attributed to John Steinbeck
Poor people do not provide jobs and even the poor understand that and they are smart enough understand that the more economic freedom for the wealthy will lead to more economic stability for the poor.
1. The two-party way ....
A poor person works for a rich person....
the rich person pays the poor person.....
that's a straight two party redistribution of wealth ....
from the rich man to the poor man.....
oddly the left does not call that wealth redistribution...
they call that oppression
2. The three party way with the middlemen controlling everything...
The left redistribution is a 3 party system ....with the left acting as the middleman in between the poor and rich....
the left takes the money from the rich man saying they will give it to the poor man .....
but the left middle man usually keeps about 80 to 90 percent of what they take for themselves...
screwing both the rich and the poor ....
and on top of taking the money from the rich and only giving scraps of it to the poor ....
the left also takes power from both the rich and the poor...
There seems to be a natural redistribution of wealth (not always true) as described by Otto von Bismarck:
“The first generation earns the money, the second administrates the money, the third studies history of art and the fourth sinks into poverty totally.”
Because the poor hope to become less poor.
If you gave all the money from the rich to the poor, the rich would have it all back in short order.
Maybe because the poor don’t believe in theft, knowing that the wealthy did not steal anything from them and do not monopolize their purchases or employment. Wake up socialists — America isn’t feudal Europe or Dikensian England, and slavery ended long ago.
Darn that whole morality thing! It’s still holding on and keeping people from being complete thieves!
Because they ARENT communists and understand that wealth isn’t ‘distributed’ because the government does NOT own it...
-rather, wealth is WORKED FOR and EARNED in a free society.
