Her recent comments about depression, and now this about redistribution are very puzzling, imho. Is she trying to derail any who hope that she be the VP, once and for all.

Michelle Obama: Coronavirus an Opportunity to Change ‘How Wealth Is Distributed’

In a free rational capitalist country, the wage rates for different kinds of labor, which is in limited supply are allocated and distributed efficiently, rationally, harmoniously, and directly by means of laws of supply and demand, principle of free market in labor, and principle of freedom of competition, and the principle of mutual self interest of both sellers and buyers.

They are determined indirectly by the costs of production of the goods and services that use the labor. The cost determines the price of the product and service which effects the demand for the product or service, which effects the demand for the labor used to make the product or service, which effects the wage rate used to make the product or service.

So there is no need for marxism, communism, socialism, egalitarianism, government interventionism, minimum wage legislation, or "living" wages.

Great idea, Michel! Which house do you and Barack sell first—the $8-million mansion in Washington, D.C. or the $14-million ocean side beauty on Martha’s Vineyard? How else can you and Barack redistribute your wealth fairly and equally among the unwashed masses? After all, it was Barack that said you only need so much money.

Obama should put her money where her big mouth is.

She can distribute her wealth first.

“how wealth is distributed””

I thought wealth was created by an individual. Why does it HAVE to be distributed? Who said those who work for it and make it have to do anything with it except take care of it to make it work and grow for themselves and THEIR FAMILIES? Where do these people get this idea from? They and everyone who thinks the same as they do are insane.

Is she going to DISTRIBUTE her wealth? Is her husband going to DISTRIBUTE his wealth? They can distribute theirs all they want, can’t they? What’s stopping them? I understand the husband wouldn’t even help out relatives when asked for financial help!!

BS walks!!!

I believe and will to my dying day that this China virus is a conspiracy by Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, DNC, CDC, and the Chinese Communist Party to ruin our economy and bring down the Trump administration. Please don’t take the bait,4 more years for the greatest president in my 80 year lifetime.

Ah, I remember the “Summer of Recovery 2009”. Obama was crying something about being stuck in a ditch and no one would help push him out. Then “ Green Shoots” that didn’t appear.

“dementia Jo’s VP pick!”

Many say “no way” to that, she’s too lazy and hate-filled.

Those adjectives are both true, but that doesn’t matter, the Progressive puppet masters behind the scene are seeking those qualities. Especially once they elbow Dementia Joe out of the way next February.

It seems to me now she is the most likely choice. The suck up media will rave from now to election day 24/7 what a wise and inspired choice she is “to bring us all together”
