And another classic liberal tactic.

The reality is that the democrats and other leftists speak about the Wealth Gap and Global Warming as if they are facts, when in fact, they aren't.

I've lurked in this thread since day one and have been able to keep my mouth shut, but today I cant, because this is just crazy.

Ok. Its not a problem. That's the issue I have. Yes, the Earth warms and cools, but I don't believe it is the fault of the human race. Yes, there are rich people and there are poor people, but no, I don't believe its the rich person's fault that poor people are poor.

That's the continuing narrative that continues on as if it is fact. That rich people are keeping the poor down and must have their wealth confiscated at the end of a gun and given to the poor.

If you don't like the facts, just claim it's a liberal conspiracy! easy peasy

Laugh while you can, the rest of the "Reds" here will be happy to include you as one of us when the glorious "Communist" victory is achieved, even if you are more than a bit unwilling to hear and understand other opinions. You know, we'll build camps to train you. Right, comrade?

This is not about making everyone equal. haha. This about the rampant wealth collection the top 1% has experienced over the last few decades and has continued it's hyperbolic rise. How do you address the ever increasing wealth gap?

by increasing economic opportunity for everyone.
income inequality is a sign of a functioning economy. you should want it because it means there's a chance you might get smart and get rich by working harder than anyone on this board.
i don't want to be poor. i'm not rich either. but just because you won't/can't get ahead doesn't mean i need to be brought down to the same economic level as you.

Feel like I lost IQ reading marshalls posts just now.

Hes so anti Red, but is an adamant supporter of Walmart, a company whose sole existence relies on china's cheap labor. Literally supporting and defending the communists you hate so dearly lol.

Who are now closer to capitalism than ever before. All because of what's left of a free market. The Chinese are hooked on commerce.

No one has ever asked for there not to be a free market? do you really think that "socialist" policies will turn us into a communist dictatorship where the government will run everything?

Do you also have 3000 cans of food for the inevitable end or the world that you would die immediately in anyway?

Yes, you have. Profit is the sole motive for the free market to function. You think profits are obscene.

And no, I am not a prepper. Cute attempt at character assassination.

I dont think profits are obscene, I think extreme profits at the expensive of the working class being seen as an ok and normal thing is obscene.
