What is stopping anyone here from increasing their amount of wealth?

The will to do it.

What is stopping anyone here from increasing their amount of wealth?

The liberals here are pursuing personal enrichment, you know it. Be it from government programs, investments, or - gasp - jobs, their self-interest is self-evident.

Have more wealth than half the population of the United States.


Hey Mr. Reagan, when exactly is this trickle down thing going to kick in?

Hey Mr. Bush, since the "job creators" still have the Tax Cut you gave them in 2002 and 2004, why aren't they, you know, creating more jobs?

Those tax cuts were repealed, shit-for-brains.

If any of you think it's a good thing, tell us why.

Not one of you can make a case that it's a good thing?

Okay. Then agreeing that it's not a good thing, what then? Is it just inevitable? Just a necessary evil towards some greater good?

What?

Gee, under Reagan income inequality was much less than after 6 years of Obozo.

How come Reagan gets blamed for Obama's failed policies, even though Reagan was dead before Obama was even a name?

Very true

Income inequality under Reagan could hardly compare to today. After 30 years of Reagan supply side we can see the results

Where is this 30 years of Reagan supply side? Bush, Reagan's successor, raised taxes. We havent had supply side in this country in a long time.
On the other hand Obama's demand side economics has managed to increase disparity to record levels. Why arent you complaiing about that?

It is neither good nor bad. Pretty simple concept. here lets play your stupid game.....

Seize all their wealth and distribute it to the supposed poor. Now explain in 2 years or less where you will get the next wealth to distribute when the poor have spent all that?

Money in the hands of the poor boosts the economy! Tha's why Venezuela is a virtual heaven these days, right?

Therefore it wouldn't matter one way or another if it wasn't the case. So why defend it?

The OP is from Chi-town, just like Obama. But talks about Americans in the third person, "You Americans This and that". Self avowed Muslim Anti west agent provocateur. Islam allows stoning and the removal of a woman's clitoris, suicide bombers, but that is OK. But we can't question their integrity or motives.

Defend what? The fact you want to seize other peoples money simply because they have more then you? I don't defend that. I don't talk about Rich people at all. I don't try to take their wealth nor claim that because they are wealthy other suffer. Why? Because it simply is not true.

It's fantastic that some people can be so wealthy. It's no skin off my nose.

Remember when we used to admire such people and aspire to emulate them?

Aah, the good ol' days, before progressivism saturated our society.

No. How about the working class makes a little more? How about the guy raising a family, working fulltime, makes 50,000 a year instead of 40,000? How about the minimum wage is 10 bucks instead of 8? How about companies operating in foreign countries paying labor pennies an hour have to pay a tariff to get goods into the US market?

None of that has anything to do with rich people being rich. You want certain laws passed talk to your Congress critters. Instead of trying to claim the simple fact a rich person has more then you is bad.

What's fantastic about it? How much money does a man need to reach the point where his life is fantastic?

Explain again how it is ANY of your business how much anyone has?

It has everything to do with the rich being that rich because every dollar a rich man acquires is a dollar that can't go somewhere else.

So now there is a finite amount of money and no one prints more or makes more or earns more or creates more? Perhaps you should reconsider your stupidity.
