@georgeeaton it's easy to boost people's income by handing out more of other people's money to them. But is it good policy?
@ijclark no,I was simply disagreeing with YOUR assertion that they may have been net taxpayers in the past. I explained why that is unlikely

@JuliaHB1 ok, so an impasse. You can't prove your assertion, and I can't prove mine. Although if I'm right the damage is greater... -
@ijclark no, you make a claim, I pointed out the unlikelihood of YOUR claim being correct, given earnings patterns. I didn't say it was fact -
@JuliaHB1 exactly. Yours is a finger in the air, "I reckon"…little evidence to back your claim. -
@ijclark sigh. No, YOUR assertion was that. I was pointing out that, as a general rule, people don't earn loads and then become poor.
