        We seem to be recapitulating the traumas that many of our ancestors fled from when they immigrated to America. Is it merely a failure of national imagination that we passively accept the development of an American oligarchy? Didn’t we flee from oppressive aristocracies?

        lol Translation "Taxation and wealth redistribution is a good thing!" Silly ass stories. They're literally moving in millions of migrants from other nations to the E.U. and stealing their own people's money to give to them. And you act like that's a good thing? Insanity.

        Never compare socialist Europe to the great capitalist society of the US. We never aspire to be Europe.

        Dont forget that they do not pay for their own defense. Maybe we should try that. Why are we subsidizing these rich countries?

        Income inequality is the stupidest issue. You should care about poverty not how to take someone else’s money and give it to someone else. That’s called theft

        There are two ways to fix income inequality. The first is to make everyone less wealthy by redistributing money. The second is to make the poor more wealthy by capitalism and individual freedom in the free market

        Unfortunately this well researched article operates under the false premise that wealth is a pie that must be distributed. Wealth is actually a pie that you bake for yourself, consequently have all the pie you want!

        that's also not a great analogy of wealth as you're not usually the sole creator of the proverbial pie.

        Pie is made with time and effort, you are the sole creator of your pie...that’s all money is, your time and effort

        Very true Repubs have yet to address Obamacare, sorry for your issues. His inexperience w/game will cost the public some on that poorly created law. Some good parts put many problems, really need to take artificial barriers out to let competition thrive everywhere and then some!

        Guessing you didn't read the article - hence under-educated being taken advantage of. I'm guessing if the debt is so important to you - you are not a supporter of cutting more taxes to the rich too? Oh Captain Oh Captain.
