From the mega rich 1% that has brought us all to parative poverty?

    Not at all. Almost anything they do with THEIR money does more good than the government can.

    They can buy a gold toilet and people will get paid to mine the gold, ship it, mold it, sell it, deliver it, and install it. Or the government can take the money, keep 72%of it to feed the bureaucracy, and give the other 28% to people who sit at home all day and compete with us to buy goods and services. I'd much rather have rich people invest or spend their money how they see fit so it goes to people who produce more wealth than have socialists take it and waste it on nonproductive means.

    Give an idiot one dollar, s/he will spend it and will stay poor. Give smart person a dollar s/he will invest it, and increase the wealth.

    So, you brought yourself to parative poverty.

    And no, I am not in 1% of population, but I am working on increasing my wealth, and it is working for me.
