Where in history does the 'spread the wealth' show that we all do better? (China? Russia?)
you forgot my addendum, "more equitably". not 100% equitably, not USSR equitably, but more equitably than we currently do.
history shows that we all do better that way, even those at the top.
A bit confused: If the $ goes through the hands of the bottom first.
How does the 'top' ascertain it immediately?
Seems the bottom should be more coy to making decisions.
i never said the top ascertain it immediately, nor that those on the bottom are making decisions that are not so coy.
the point is that it goes through their hands first, rather than those of a select few.
the people get to spend it the way they want, whether that be on community college tuition or beer and firecrackers. after all, the money will always be spent wiser by the taxpayer rather than the government, says every low tax advocate ever.
furthermore, since money is power, a more equitable spread of the wealth also means that the power is more decentralized. that should satisfy anyone who wants looser gun laws for the exact same reason, decentralization of power.
It's why the guys at the top, are at the top.
LOL!
the top is at the top for a lot of reasons, and very often not because they deserve to be. there are lots of ways to come into money, whether through inheritance, or marriage, or illegal means.
you don't have to be vanderbilt to make some hay.
