meanwhile your two man butt thirst traps had this to say

Men of real wealth never worry about the price of things.

.Only peasants cry over prices.

If you have to ask the price, you can't afford it.

Yeah, lets talk about inequality

It's being stuck on stereotypes. Democrats really push this bullshit that THEY are for the poor and working.

If it was really about income inequality, people would be willing to admit what doesnt work and would be invested in things like making sure the schools are up to standards in poor areas.

Making sure people on welfare have an avenue of getting OFF welfare as they start getting more stable.

Taking an honest and deeper look at the socail programs we already have and working with that in a way that is more beneficial for everyone rather than just yelling for the government to further tax the people.

The most frustrating part is the unwillingness to consider anything beyond taxing more. Not being critical of any politicains with the democrat/prog label.

Honestly at this point we are so far removed from dealing with these problems because tribal politcs has gotten so bad that people have to focus on things like teaching small children about sex and racism.

Left wing activists wont even allow the low income people in inner cities even hear from other parties. When the retired police cheif of Detroit tried to speak to Detroit residents activists shut it down. Because he is running as a Republican. So Democrats have horrifically failed and at this point the peoples right to hear from other parties is not being respected at all.

It's about power and control. Nothing else.

Inequity is meaningless and is mostly pushed by communists who want equal outcomes,at least in theory. In reality communists end up enriching the political elites and inpoverishing everyone else.

Utopian Leftists, like our Lotus, use the economic inequality trope to stir up resentment and envy in order to advance the power of the State. Yes, in theory only the State can equally divide everything up and redistribute it making sure that all are equally provided for, but in practice it has never worked anywhere it's ever been tried.

But purists like Lotus continue to believe in the juvenile fantasy of "equality" because it makes her feel good as she takes advantage of her own economic inequality by living in Portugal and today being able to trade her American dollars for more Euros than last week.

Economic inequality is totally cool for her when she can stretch her own buying power.

Yet you worship the politics of the richest man on earth, do you ever think?

No he doesnt.

Why do you guys always say that stupid shit that anything other people support they are "worshipping"?

And are you really blind to the fact that most of the wealthiest people and and corps are all on board with the same shit you are?

For everyone ONE wealthy person that values individual liberty, there are 5 more who oppose it.

Can you explain exactly how half of all the wealth would get all equally divided between everyone and the impact that would have in REALITY?

Do you just somehow NOT understand the power and wealth you would be GIVING to flawed human beings who do not actually value human life? So you want WHO to be in charge of "redistribution"? Because those people would be the ones whose total mercy we are at.

And that's leaving out the whole issue of why even have the businesses we have. If it's all just gonna be handed to us how many people are gonna step up to do the jobs? Will we even be allowed to NOT work? Because eventually the ones in total control of our lives via income would have to force people into jobs.

You know you guys really seem to believe that giving the government the ability to decide everyones income like that is "liberating" us but in reality its literal slavery. Slavery you are willing for FORCE people into.

I see arguments like this to fix "income inequality" but when others start asking hard questions(as everyone SHOULD ask) there are NEVER any answers given. Just hostility. Like how DARE people think they should have a say in their life. You guys know better what's best for everyone more than we know what's best for ourselves and I guess we are pieces of racist shit not worth talking to for not recognizing that.

'Let's give ALL control of our resources and lives to corrupt wealthy elites! And if you dont support that you just worship the politics of like 3 wealthy elites(out of the entire group that wants more power and more wealth) that believe in liberty!!'

Let's not forget that when she sold her home in Cali she did so at a price tag commensurate with fair market value

despite the homelessness crisis which surrounded her

and she wishes to pontificate to the rest of us about the perils of capitalism and the inequity she believes it brings

can you be more of a hypocrite than that?

Socialism works well in smaller locales like Canada and Western Europe.

But America is Beast unto itself for which socialism does not appear to work.

Same time, it takes the might of this capitalist beast to defend and defeat against the likes of Russia, China and the ISIS threat.

America is is highly indebted, but I guess its allies turn a blind eye in exchange for it being the policeman foofthe world @Reggie_Essent. So they'll continue to buy Amierican...including its massive debt just to keep 'em safe.

The only place that socialism seems to work would be the Nordic Model in Scandi countries, but that's not really socialism in the true sense, since capitalism is also encouraged to exist.

And it works there because the population is (or at least it used to be, things change) homogeneous... They're White, and typically have similar goals as to what life should be.

Yeah. They also trust their government and the government does right by them.

America isnt set up for any sort of federal socailism. We have state governments and part of our checks and balances that exist to ensure the liberty and rights of the people is that state/federal set up.

Socailism here would be a mess and it would really infringe. It was an infringement that people were being fined for not having insurance. The government forcing insurance was disgusting.

People have to have a foundational unity and we here in America are SO far from that. The hate here alone is ridiculous and destroying the country. We have the one "side" that wants to call all the shots, control the government and make all the decisions and treat everyone who doesnt want it with contempt regardless of their valid reasons.

That shows how ignorant you are. Capitalism exists and is encouraged in all socialist countries. SMDH

You people don't understand the difference between capitalism with laws and malignant capitalism with no regard for human beings.

Economic inequality is not okay with me under any circumstances. But you have named yourself judge, jury, and executioner of everyone who thinks slightly differently from you, without actually learning any of the facts.

You know close to zero about what is fine with me. Cretin.

Can you explain how everything he said was "bullshit" please?

We know you think our opinions on this are "bullshit". What we dont know is how and why you've determined its "bullshit".

All Reg did was post the thought out opinions of millions of people. So it's not like we are the only ones. Perhaps an explaination for why this is bullshit would be a helpful thing?

Really? So when team blue labels everyone who thinks slightly different then them "fascists/racists/hateful/bigoted/a "danger to democracy".....et.....that's not naming themselves judge/jury and executioner?

Can we get a fucking coherent explaination of this socailist redistribution idea that is supposed to cure "income inequality" or is that just too tall of order?

Since our thoughts on the matter are always called bullshit?

Or are we all just bratty children who should go to our rooms without dessert for daring to question authority?

But when you sold your house in Cali so that you could take your winnings to an area of the world where they could be stretched farther you did so at the highly inequitable and unfair price point of the prevailing market at the time with ZERO regard for local people sleeping on the fucking sidewalk not but a mere mile (MAX) from where you lived

But here you want to pontificate about the evils of economic inequality after YOU yourself benefited from the very same

hypocrite piece of shit.

I dont see where anyone is stopped from redistributing their income.

Why do we have to be forced to participate in that? And if that's what they want.....to force us....the least they could do is provide a coherent explaination of what they envision occurring.

I don't know how you got from what I said to me being judge, jury and executioner. I simply pointed out the dissonance between your stated position decrying income inequality while you yourself take advantage of your own income inequality by benefiting from the fall of the Euro which makes your stack of American dollars worth more.

How would you "solve" into income inequality problem?
