No, I don't have an Apple product...You know the idea of privatizing gains of the wealthy while privatizing the risks isn't working when even they start to admit how unsustainable it is....but you continue on with your wealth worship...That same 10% pays 90% of the federal income taxes, and 50% pay nothing. If you want equality then everyone should pay the same tax rate.the government already has that authority...that is how wealth has been redistributed to the top -- that is why 10% of the people own over half of the wealth......but you dic suckers don't mind that kind of government welfare....which brings me to another King quote"distribution of wealth" ? who do you propose that we give the authority to distribute wealth to? The same people who run the VA? the same people who have put our country 20 trillion in debt?

How do you propose that the government redistribute the wealth? by taking it by force from those who have earned it and handing it to those who have done nothing? If thats your plan, then why would anyone work in your system? If your system is designed to punish success and reward failure, what kind of country do you think that will create? Please actually think before answering.
Hedge-fund billionaire Ray Dalio says capitalism needs urgent reform
I happen to agree that many CEOs are making obscene amounts of money and that the gap between the CEO and the people who do the work has gotten ridiculous in the last decade or so.
But the answer is not more government regulations or tax policy. The answer is to stop buying the products of those companies. I bet you have an apple phone running microsoft software, right? You just helped Gates and the Cook make billions, why are you doing that? I also bet that you envy those who have more than you do, drive better cars, take better vacations, and have bigger houses. Like all liberals, you do not live the life you want to force on everyone else. Are you happy that the Obama's live in a multi million $ mansion overlooking the ocean, or that Gore has a 20,000 sq ft home?
liberalism = hypocrisy. it is proven every day.
But speaking of Apple and other large companies who have near industry monopolies....who do you think enabled them to have those monopolies?? Government...
and who are the main ones against anti-trust regulations?? Not liberals....
But I like how you claim CEO's make obscene amounts of money -- because when people like Bernie say it -- dic suckers like you attack him...which further lets me know you are full of shit
Apple hardly has a "monopoly" not even close, apparently you are unfamiliar with what the definition of the word is.
Apple faces huge competition from outfits like Samsung and others in the manufacture of phones and computers and other devices.
