    Wishful thinking is not an economic solution

    Theories on how to efficiently run an economy

    Before I begin, I'd like to say that while I've posted in many online forums over the years, I've never started a thread of this nature anywhere.

    I want Bill Gates to be richer

    I want Bill Gates, and all people who have gotten rich legally off of business, to get richer. The fact that Gates is worth Billions, doesn't negatively effect me at all. In fact, it helps. Let's look at it. Whoever buys software from Mircrosoft gave them $300 or so to make their life easier...
