Income Inequality will explode in Trump's second term! The rich will get richer!!!!

[Luckyone]

The idea bwhind your clain is false. " The poor will get the crumbs that are left " is predicated on the zero sum game belief which is simply not true

There is no pie of wealth that everyone gets a piece of. When a biillionaire makes another billion NO one loses a billion. When a billionaire makes a dollar no one loses a dollar.

No one on this thread or any other can demonstrate any harm caused by wealth inequality

This is not about "winning and losing". Nothing in the OP says that. In fact, this chart that I put up in the OP

does not show the bottom percentage losing anything. What it does show is that 98% of Americans did not have any growth over the past 44 years, while the top 2% grew exponentially.

With so much growth and yet the 98% not growing, it does mean that they got "the crumbs of the growth seen).

It is a SIMPLE as that.

Here's what happened after your chart ends (conveniently):

Awhile back, there was some libtard proposing a 70% tax on "the rich." Of course, they propose this all the time. A 70% tax on LeBro would mean that he gets less than 15 mil of his 48 mil annual salary. Almost the same for his teammate Anthony Davis. Sounds wacis to me.

[Hellokitty]

EXTREMES and INCOMPETENCE is my point. Everything that is well thought out and well done will turn out well. If it is incompetently and with extremes you will get negative results.

So you got Word Salad...

There is NO DOUBT that this is going to happen and that the poor and middle class will only receive the crumbs that are left.

Are you okay with this?

Complete nonsense, as usual...

Look at this and learn something for a change...

This is what happened to Black incomes in real (inflation-adjusted) dollars under Obama, Trump, and Biden/Harris.

Trump made Black much richer. Black incomes declined under Obama - who had eight long, painful years - and Biden/Harris.

All of your reasons for voting for Dems are false, so you are clearly living a lie.

I already showed you how to move to the top 2% - how many of my recommendations have you followed thus far. ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

 

[Nostra]

Let me explain my position once again as it seems that no one ever wants to understand something so simple.

What I am against is extremes and incompetence. All extremes are bad and incompetence brings more harm than good.

Trump is extreme and incompetent and what HE does, generally brings more bad than good.

Do you understand what I am saying?

"Complete Nonsense as usual"?

Would you explain exactly what about the OP is complete nonsense?

Is it that income inequality is high and is going to go higher if Trump does what he say's he is going to by cutting taxes more?

Is it the fact that Billionaires at $2.2 Trillion richer since 2017?

Is it this chart?

Where is the nonsense in this. You do know that these are the only 3 things in the OP, don't you?

Please explain your comment using these 3 things!!!

 

[Luckyone]

So you got Word Salad...

Explain what it is about stating that extremes and incompetence are "word salad".

Are you saying that none of these exist and they are just words?

Is this not an imcompetent exteme?

Show me one other president (or even person) with such extreme incompetence as these FACTS do provide.

You do know that Trump in 1998 "personally" (not business) owed $1.1 billion dollars and no one in history has ever had that large of a personal debt? Is owing the most ever not an extreme? not extreme incompetence, especially considering he started with $414 million and he turned that into all that debt?

Show me where there is ANY word salad? Be specific please. Word salad from you would be insulting.

The rich will get richer!!!!​

Stop trying to cheer me up.

Democrats are the only people on the planet that think that fucking the rich to make themselves poorer is a good trade-off.

Why do you keep ignoring what's happened since 2020? Have you been in a coma or something?

You voted for wealth inequality to get WORSE, and it did.

 

[Luckyone]

Stop trying to cheer me up.

I am not "trying". It is a 99% probability. Are you a billionaire in the top 2%? If so, you can now start celebrating. You do not have to wait.

You should have realized that it was a typo!


I did make a mistake, it was actually more (not less) loss:


Commentary

More pain than gain: How the US-China trade war hurt America​

A September 2019 study by Moody’s Analytics found that the trade war had already cost the U.S. economy nearly 300,000 jobs and an estimated 0.3% of real GDP. Other studies put the cost to U.S. GDP at about 0.7%. A 2019 report from Bloomberg Economics estimated that the trade war would cost the U.S. economy $316 billion by the end of 2020, while more recent research from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and Columbia University found that U.S. companies lost at least $1.7 trillion in the price of their stocks as a result of U.S. tariffs imposed on imports from China


Trump is all about "my way or the highway". I can show you how time after time over the past 8 years, it has been the Democrats willing to compromise more than the Republicans.

Go ahead and show us. Was it compromise when Navarro and Bannon went to jail. Was compromise when NY passed a new law so they could try Trump?

 

[Lastamender]

Here is some compromise. Blowhole.

An idiotic prediction begets a meaningless question.

 

[Mashmont]

So staying where you were 44 years ago but the rich getting more, does not bother you? You and your family not getting a chance to improve your life but 2% of Americans improving greatly is not something that affects you in any way?

As I said, that's a crock. Pretty much everybody is doing better than they were in 1980.

 

[initforme]

Perhaps a much smaller workforce would help alot of this. Low wage jobs left unfilled.

In fact $434K per year puts you in the top 2% … you don’t need to be a billionaire.
