Nonsense.
Nonsense? How many of the bottom income people, produce jobs? How many poor people have offered you full time jobs? Do tell. I can't wait to see your statistical numbers of how many poor people create long-term jobs in the country.
Jobs are created to meet demand. Demand comes from consumers.
There aren't wal marts all over the country because of rich people.
But it was the "rich people" who developed, financed and executed on the WalMart premise. If it were easy then anyone could do it.
Sure, because it's profitable. A good investment and only because there were and are consumers demanding what they offer. It's the bulk of America that makes our economy work. Not rich people.
Investment only makes up 15% of GDP.
Consumer spending is 70%.
Yet Sears failed. Sometimes "rich people" make mistakes. Consumers have a plethora of options. The key is to build the best mousetrap.
I agree. Opportunities come and go. Change is good. One thing stays the same though.
The poor make the rich, rich. There's nothing inherently wrong with that. My beef is giving the rich all the credit.
