F*ck rich folks! Your plan spells doom for the middle class

And all of those woes are because we don't simply let the rich get richer?  And that is really what it is all about, not simply letting rich folks keep some of their money - they have never had a problem with that.  Their "problem" has always been figuring out how to keep and accumulate more, more, more.

What a crock of self-serving hype!  I say f*ck rich folks, at least every last one of them who became rich as a result of screwing over those with less wealth and getting special ill gotten favors and advantages not available to the less wealthy and less well connected.

The rich have been getting richer for generations now - just look at how the gap between the rich and the rest of the population has widened no matter what tax policies have been in place or which party has been theoretically in charge.  And now the rich are the ones who are getting bailed out and asking the rest of us to foot the bill and lower our standards of living so they can remain rich and keep getting richer.

Let's throw out the hype and use simple logic.  There is only so much wealth and therefore only so much real money to go around.  So how does it really benefit of the middle class and the poor to let the rich get richer?  It is simply mathematically impossible.  The rich can only get richer if the poor and middle class get poorer.  For the poor and middle class to become better off financially would by definition require that they get a bigger piece of the pie.  Having the rich get richer and having the middle class and poor become better off are mutually exclusive.  At best you can slightly improve the lot of the poor while eliminating the middle class and ending up only with two classes: the elite rich and the poor who serve them.

No matter how much smoke and mirrors you use, you can't refute the simple math.

If you really take a look past the propaganda at the history of the rich around the world, mos of the rich got rich and richer by screwing over the middle class and the poor and unscrupulously doing in their competition, including inheriting money from previous robber baron generations who did the same thing.

How about we start all over, take away most of the huge ill gotten fortunes and use it to pay off the debt that taxe all of us and lower our standards of living, and then have a truly level playing field with no corporate welfare or special breaks for the rich?  No nanny state, mind you - just a fair state where those who are able earn their keep equally.  Those who work hardest and smartest, instead of cheat the best, can be free to become richer in a fair manner based on merit instead of manipulation.

Having the rich get richer may lead to more employment as in your illustration of the rich being able to buy more luxuries and creating more jobs to supply those luxuries, but in the long run it leads to greater and greater class disparities and ultimately will result in a rich elite and a servant class with few vestiges of the middle class we have known for generations.

What you espouse is what the NWO wants and as such, it is just a big ol' turd that won't float no matter how much lipstick you put on it.
