You are dumb as a post. Consumer spending is what drives the economy.
Wrong. That is your first mistake.
Your second mistake is thinking gov't stimulates the economy by spending money
Your third mistake is thinking gov't invests money
Your fourth mistake is thinking you can solve income inequality by making rich people poor
Your fifth mistake is thinking you make people's lives better by mandating higher wages
Your sixth mistake is talking about economics when you've never studied the subject
Your seventh mistake is coming on these boards yammering about it and getting your ass handed to you in every thread.
You misunderstand gov spending on the economy. As long as it is done appropriately, it does work. Why? Because when you stimulate economic demand, it causes a ripple effect in the economy. That is why it is not zero sum.
Everything else you said is so retarded it isn't even funny.
Every dollar the government spends it must first take from somewhere. That also has "ripple effects." The net result is negative, not positive. Transferring money and resources from productive people to useless parasites does not help the economy. The empirical record demonstrates this fact beyond refutation.
