If we're not well off now, when was it that we were better off? Or how about saying if there ever was a time worse than now.
I'm saying we fine now with regard to this issue of wealth and income distribution. That said, the gap is wider today than it was prior to the great depression...in the days of the so called robber barons. Again, 100 years of meddling fixed nothing.
I still have no idea why you're going on about slavery and plantations.
WTF is wrong with you people? Seriously! The wealth gap from the New Deal through the Great Society was the closest it has ever been in our nations history. Don't you morons know how to read a fucking graph? The REASON the wealth gap is now what it was during the Gilded Age, is Nixon, Reagan and conservative era that has destroyed the middle class. Ronald Reagan was the greatest socialist in American history. Reagan transferred more than 3 trillion dollars of wealth from the poor and the middle class to the opulent.
Reagan: The great American Socialist
Your clearly overwhelming bias renders any attempt at reasonable discourse futile.
