    I think that the disappearing middle class could be part of the problem.

    Also, like Gates said: "I can understand the drive behind getting a million dollars, but after that I'll have to tell you; it's the same hamburger."

    It's not that there should't be any rich people, It's the ratio that's fucked.

    That is the worst standard to determine poverty or not. Of course I can't. It doesn't make me poor. Wow, what a weird way to think of things.

    No, I am not poor. Is someone richer than me? Yes. Is someone poorer than me? Yes.

    I am far from deluded. I have a roof over my head secured by a mortgage, live in San Diego, have a steady job, have food in my belly and I am not running my credit down the drain is by definition NOT POOR.

    You thinking that I am poor is delusional.

    That is a fact. Not a popular one.

    Its fine to take the side of the poor, and I get it. It's not a fun place to be. I have been there. However, there is no escaping the simple arithmetic that getting something for nothing is theft. It shouldn't be criminally enforced, but the math still checks.

    Whoa whoa whoa! Ad hominem?

    Skin in game = paying taxes. Not paying taxes specifically means not having skin in the game.

    Moreover, implying that being rich is being a thief (taking 50%) is just more rhetoric.

    what reality? the one where half of our population has 10% of the income, while 1% of our population takes 50%? They should only pay their fair share if they're poor, right?

    nice ad hominem. can't back it up with reason, so..

    Well then I will call you someone who has no grasp for reality. The thing between your ears clearly is not a brain.
