Bernie: We don't talk about it very much, but there is more income & wealth inequality than at any time in America in the last 100 years

[Grumblenuts]

That implies that everyone who has an opinion is an asshole.

I meant something else, but if that's the opinion you've inferred, run with it.

The whole implication is that anyone who has a different opinion is an asshole. Of course that could make both, or all, parties to the question assholes if they all differ in their opinions.

Mark Twain was kinder, imputing insanity to those with different opinions.

CEOs and large corporations make over 350 times more than their average workers...Meanwhile, working families are struggling...i could give stats all day about how unfair the gap between the rich and the poor is

There is also likely more opportunity than in the last 100 years.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

You seem to be ignoring the word "Top" as in "top CEOs".

What do you base this opinion on?

/-----/ Don't talk about it very much? Don't talk about it very much? You Libtards never shut up about it. GEEEEZE.

Hunter isn't qualified to sweep floors---------anyone hiring him is doing so to get access to joes political office.

You sure are ignorant.

 

[Cellblock2429]

Old Bernie is sucking around looking for another payoff. It must be election season.

/-----/ And Hunter Biden was paid 10,000 times more than all of his hookers combined, but class envy Libtards dummy up.

I didn't see the word "Top" in the OP.

Did you?

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

You sure are ignorant.

That reminds me, how are you feeling about those Bush appointees in CFIUS? DURR

 

[Woodznutz]

What do you base this opinion on?

The history of the last 100 years compared to today. Even in the decade after WW2 opportunities were scarce, wages low. Today one can work at McDonald's and get help for college. Same with the military. There are good paying jobs everywhere today.

 

[Darkwind]

Opinions are like assholes.

In 2020, top CEOs earned 351 times more than the typical worker

Since 1978, CEO compensation has grown 1,322%, but typical worker compensation has risen 18%.

www.cnbc.com

And CNBC is just another wrong opinion.

True, but it was in the post that you responded to.

My first response was post #6. To the OP.

My first response was post #6. To the OP.

And my response to you was a direct reply to your post # 19.

He is right.
During Obama's Presidency, the wealth gap grew at a faster pace than anytime in American history. Mot just some random claim, it is simply a fact. 2008 crushed the middle class. But the bailouts enriched the investor class handsomely. As it was intended.
And then came Covid. The wealthy have made mad money off Covid shutdowns.
American $billionaires increased their wealth by 62% between 2020-2021. 62%!!!
Our way of life is rapidly decreasing while the Oligarchy is devouring all the wealth this country creates.
But no worries!! Biden passed a law allowing transgender surgeries on minors, Important stuff like that.

Hunter actually worked for George W. Bush and Bill Clinton before Biden was V.P. , so those hiring Hunter are looking for a way to get to the Clinton, Bush and Biden family…

Can't disagree with that--------SWAMP creatures---working together to rob the rest of us. JOe was Hilliary's insistance for Obama's VP--her demand for her conceding the primary to Obama. The Bushes have been part of that group---as Romney and McCain---all crooks chosen by the puppet masters.

It's why the swamp hated and had to go after Trump like they did---they won't allow an outsider.
