While there is the lucky genes club, most of the folks making money "worked for it". That is the point of the nation.

Not "Here's your handout, it's all we got this week. The rich guys quit working when we just took their earnings."
You want to cede power and authority, go socialist. Seriously.
Dudes, all you have to do is look at the countries where it has happened. The only change is "more extreme poverty". It gets worst for most. Except for those in power, they have it better.
I can't fathom how an American can think that's the way. I just don't understand that mentality. Are we truly Rome? I fear we've got to fat and entitled.
I agree a sea change is coming, but I'm afraid it's not going to be a good one.
