85 people hold 46% of the world's wealth.This is the entitled taker class. Top 1% hold essentially all wealth.

There is no way to do this morally, in fact, no way to do this legally.

Wealth disparity has always lead to economic failure and revelation.

The two most recent huge wealth disparities were in 1928 and 2007. The data is clear.

In the US the bottom 80% own, 5% of the assets.

Knowing that, opposition of a minimum wage increase is absurd. Even if the bottom dwellers get a few bucks more an hour its meaningless. So instead of owning 5%, their share of the pie will be up to 5.0012% after a minimum wage increase...

Moochelle Obama just spend over a month in Hawaii, with vast expenditures there being absorbed by the taxpayer.

Barry made his only serious money by having 2 books written about his own magnificence.

His first financial disclosures showed him well under $1 million in net worth -- a level almost any suburban homeowner with a 401(k) has.

Later disclosures showed poor, humble Barry trying hard to be rich, and having upwards of 10 million net worth.

Limo liberals?

The day is almost over and Bilbo is once again disappointed. Obama did not drive up trailering a mule and a deed to 40 acres in his back pocket like he first promised. The dream remains a dream......not for Barack and Moo, though, their wildest dreams have come true, thanks to that dream weaver, the American taxpayer.

The Obama family spends more money on vacation than 99% of Americans make a year...to top it off it's paid for by that 99% who can't afford such vacations.

It is easy to whittle away Bilbo's lack of logic.

Bilbo, you keep calling me "little" but I'm a good bit taller than most folks. How tall are you?

And, Bilbo, it is entirely relevant that the Obamas live in luxury, but they did not work to earn it. Instead, they live in a form of super-welfare paid for by taxpayers in a weak economy.

Bilbo starts a thread complaining about the rich having money they earned and then claims Obama family's extreme opulent lifestyle on the tax payer's dime is irrelevant. :lol: Dudes, that's how liberals think!

Perhaps they should understand they are not royalty at Versailles?

Perhaps, after preaching to the entire country about jobs and the economy and such, the Obamas could learn to live more simply -- and set a better example -- instead of living it up on the public nickel while millions of Americans struggle to make ends meet.

But the reality is that the Obamas have always lived soft, pampered lives.

Neither of them ever did a lick of manual labor, or ran a business, or served in the military, or did anything but bleat about white racism while practicing reverse racism.
