Good thing professional politicians seem to have better, "business sense", for the People.I guess the right wing has no problem with an autocratic plutocratic nation, even though none would benefit from it much or at all.
It would be "let them eat cake," it would be, "let them it crumbs."
What I find amusing, Kiwi...is all the whining that's done by you on the left about how the rich are supposedly going to get richer under Trump...it's the rich who got wealthier under Obama and the Middle Class and the poor who got poorer!
What's sad is you buy the crap your Democratic leaders feed you about how they are there for you...the little guy...when the truth is...they're there for themselves and couldn't care less about you until it's time to vote again!
Oldstyle, I've been bitching about this since W's administration, through Obama's administration and now with Trump.
Unfortunately with Trump and his budget things would get far worse than it is now. Fortunately, his budget is "dead on arrival" per the GOP leadership.
Your comments about the Dems are correct and it applies to the Repugs too. It's why I have been bashing the two major parties since my arrival in 2010. It's why I rarely vote either major political party and when I do it's the moderates/centralist who get my vote.
Back to the topic, I think you'd be hard pressed, to find an economist who doesn't think Trump's budget would widen the inequality and that inequality weakens the US economic stability. Also, many economists have stated because of growing inequality economic downturns are taking longer and longer to recover. Over 70% of this country's economy is consumer driven. Inequality, is a nail in the coffin of a consumer driven economy, when the middle class is the largest sector of the consumer demographic.
