You question whether the bottom fifty percent of US earners are pulling their weight, right? What does the following chart tell you about the earnings of the bottom fifty percent?Where did I blame the poor? WTF kind of drugs are
Do you see how the bottom 40% of earners disappear in the Actual Distribution of Wealth? How much in taxes should these people pay in order "to pull their weight."

Mother Jones knows the difference between wages and wealth; what's your excuse, Moron?What moron even cites Mother jones anyway.
Too many big words?
Everywhere except USMB, apparently.Class warfare you say?
Maybe the wrong side got supplies?
"Productivity in the economy grew by 80.4 percent between 1973 and 2011 but the growth of real hourly compensation of the median worker grew by far less, just 10.7 percent….
"The pattern was very different from 1948 to 1973, when the hourly compensation of a typical worker grew in tandem with productivity.
"Reestablishing the link between productivity and pay of the typical worker is an essential component of any effort to provide shared prosperity and, in fact, may be necessary for obtaining robust growth without relying on asset bubbles and increased household debt."
40 Years of Economic Policy in One Chart CounterPunch Tells the Facts Names the Names
In the 1970s wages detached from productivity and the richest among us began using their newly acquired wealth to reduce taxes on capital, role back regulations, break unions, "and induce their shady Central Bank buddies to keep interest rates locked below the rate of inflation so they could cream hefty profits off gigantic asset bubbles."
Mission Accomplished?
What happened in 1980?
We made a comittment to supply side economics
FDR thought so:Maybe the wrong side got supplies?

"'The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself.
Fox News has a higher credibility level than Mother Jones. You'd be better off getting advice from The Moscow Times, over Mother Jones. Even the Russian controlled media has better quality and fact checking than Mother Jones.
"A huge share of the nation's economic growth over the past 30 years has gone to the top one-hundredth of one percent,

EU unemployment rate - Google Search
You talk about stuff as if you know something....... how many seconds did it take me to punch in "EU unemployment rate" into Google.
If you are this ignorant......... you shouldn't even be discussing this. Go learn something, and stop wasting EVERYONE'S time.
Money controls politics and big business generates more money than any other private institution.There are endless examples of government screwing over business. Endless. None of which would have happened if business really controlled politics.

"A huge share of the nation's economic growth over the past 30 years has gone to the top one-hundredth of one percent, who now make an average of $27 million per household. The average income for the bottom 90 percent of us? $31,244."

"In the United States, several of the characteristics described by Phelps are apparent. With regard to income inequality, the 2014 income analysis of University of California, Berkeley economist Emmanuel Saez confirms that relative growth of income and wealth is not occurring among small and mid-sized entrepreneurs and business owners (who generally populate the lower half of top one per-centers in income),[25] but instead only among the top .1 percent of income distribution ... whom Paul Krugman describes as 'super-elites - corporate bigwigs and financial wheeler-dealers.'[26][27]... who earn $2,000,000 or more every year.[28][29"

Dude, I don't believe in Democracy. We were never supposed to be a Democracy.
Democracy, is the rule of the ignorant. You are proving that with this very thread.
You don't know how anything in this economy is made, but want to control it? That right there is the fundamental result of Democracy.
Again, you are still wrong. The government has screwed over corporations over and over. Half the stuff we have regulated by our government, wouldn't be if business controlled the government. You are just flat out wrong. You can post all the crap you want, but it will never prove anything, because we can see the reality in all the endless regulations we have. Hundreds of thousands of regulations... oh but business controls them. Bull crap. You are just full of it.
