Why is it the far right doesn't want to address the reality of the record wealth gap? It just doesn't make sense for an ideology that rightfully expounds capitalism.
Really? They constantly talk about 1/2 of the gap headed for the 10%, But why should you care about the wealth gap? And yes, the gap is capitalism. The have, the have nots, the wealth moving to those at the top like a pyramid scheme. Those filthy socialists want to change that, but that is a no no.
Isn't it true that around 70% of our economy is driven by consumer spending? Isn't also true that the middle class makes up a majority of the consumer class? Isn't it true that despite the fact that productivity has been strong and profts have been good, wages have been flat for the last tens years? Isn't it true that the majority of the middle class have lost expendable income because of flat wages? Exactly how can the US economy driven economy sustain itself if the middle class can't contribute enough to drive our economy? How can a supply and demand scenario work when there is no demand because of limitations of expendable income? Who exactly determines wages, what economic class do they represent?
Oh no, you figured it out. You must be a socialist criminal, really a bad person in America.
I've asked this question hundreds of times on various forums and I have yet to see a viable amswers.
If a person believes in capitalism, the wealth gap should be a major long-term concern to them.
The wealth gap really isn't a problem. When they wealth has finally been scooped up by the top 10%, the economy goes into a recession and workers are blamed for making too much money, the thought of a living wage conjuers up Unionist devils, poor people in the gutter & welfare mothers scrapping diems to buy formula. The Evil ones.........
So we give those in the top 10% a Trillion dollars for their gap success, and that is capitalism. That is stimulus for taking longer to recover from the drpression, because that is more money at the top.
