The sad thing is that these people to damned lazy to work, actually believe that the dimocrats are going to make all of THEM rich by taxing all the RICH!!! They are that gullible. Good freaking grief!! Sheep. That is all they are. Sheep following the piper of the communists, thinking communism will work here with all these “smart” dimocrats doing it. It failed in the Soviet Union. It has crushed a prosperous nation of Venezuela. North Korea is a prison camp. The only reason Red China has done well is the may be communists, but they do the capitalists walk when it comes to money.

Can anyone name one communist country that has been a success? It is astounding to me that just 30 years out from the fall of the Berlin wall we have so many people who believe that the system that built that wall is the best one.

Due to human nature and mathematics, every society will have its one percenters (just as in every category, half will be below average). The difference between capitalist and socialist societies is who has the power to determine who gets to be a one percenter: the individual or the government. You might say, well the government can make sure the spread between the top and bottom one percenters is more equitable but that is envy speaking, not common sense.

I fully agree that oligarchs like Soros, Bloomberg and others have way too much influence but the solution lies more in re-establishing personal morality throughout society than confiscatory taxation and abusive governmental power.
