we managed to be pretty positive in this thread for a short moment until a republican showed up....

Love how everyone who isn't a democrat is automatically a republican to you.

Im not a republican, and im not a democrat. Im not even an independent because i refuse to support a governmental system that forces the country into a division. The two party system has been killing us for a long time, and it will continue to do so

57% of all new wealth goes to the top 1% - true.

Even if everyone worked hard and got a college education, we would still need people to stock shelves and deliver pizzas and dig ditches. Do these people deserve to live in poverty?

Theres no such thing as new wealth, just inflation.
And iirc, the worlds 1% makes up 90% of the planets wealth. Numbers are fun

U dum or sumtin??

When we take raw materials like stone and iron and fossil fuels and manpower and turn them into something more valuable than the combined constituent components, such as a factory that manufactures automobiles, new wealth is created. This is not the same as an increase in currency, ya moran.

This combats inflation by increasing the buying power of the dollar. In an EQ analogy, it'd be like me farming 200 fungis and selling them without a comparable increase in plat in the market. The price of each fungi goes down, and the buying power of each plat goes up. This works against currency inflation.

Thats new product, not new wealth. This countries wealth doesnt even exist anymore when you look at it. Our dollar has no counterpart anymore. Used to be able to take a dollar into a bank, and get a dollars worth of gold. Cant do that anymore since the dollar's value is simply based on whatever the man behind the curtain says its worth and has been removed from gold completely.

Was funny. All competing to give away the most "free" stuff. Felt like a Nickelodeon kids award giveaway.
