Because you are so ignorant as to not understand the difference between savings and huge income inequality because of Crony Capitalism on the way towards a Banana Republic or another great depression.


In between 1978 and 2014, inflation-adjusted CEO pay increased by almost 1,000%, according to a report released on Sunday by the Economic Policy Institute. Meanwhile, typical workers in the U.S. saw a pay raise of just 11% during that same period...

That's true. So it must be what one does with the one they got.

So you are OK with wealth inequality, but not income inequality?

Income equality would mean everyone makes the same amount of money, BTW. So the lazy, stupid person makes as much as the hardworking, skilled person?

The guy cleaning the mirrors at a strip club makes as much as the guy cleaning the boilers in the basement?

What? The Democrats would not be able to find a right wing conservative Christian that would run on Democrat ticket.

Yesterday - or Wed., the Wall Street Journal ran piece that discussed Mr. Sanders vs Hillary. With all the crap Hillary pulled on Sanders they claimed there was so much resentment that a large group of Sanders people (I think it was 12%), which was enough to put Trump over the top. Anyway the thought was, it was that portion of the Democrats that got Trump elected. I have to dig up the paper and read it again.

Plenty of right wingers would run for President on the Democrat ticket if they thought they could win.

Carefully glossing over increasing the debt by more than all other Presidents in US history combined - by OBammy. Right now I cannot recall the names of the Demonicrats that were helping to craft any legislation in the past year to do anything to improve anything. Was it Senator Zip or Rep. Zilch or was it Senator Nadda? More like Demonicrats Larry, Mo and Curly.

Only way anything got achieved was by using the Nuclear option to get things done by simple majority. Courtesy of - Senator Harry 'Ol One Eyed' Reid.

I read what you just wrote as dodging the question.

How's that for reading comprehension?

I'm opposed to Crony Capitalism, now where do you stand on wealth inequality?

Are you pretending to be literate in economics again, snitchy? Your boy Larry Mishel is the one spouting nonsense - just like you do with every post you make. He says US output (real GDP) did not increase between 1978 and 2014. In fact, it more than doubled from $6 trillion in 1978 to $16 trillion in 2014 (measured in constant 2009 dollars). So clearly the pie got much bigger!

https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/GDPC1

Mishel contradicts himself again when he says "everyone else has a smaller piece" - after his own Economic Policy Institute noted the typical worker saw a pay raise of 11% during that period. That may not sound like a lot, but it sure as fuck is a raise and not a "smaller piece".

I'm not defending CEO pay, just pointing out once again what a fucking dunce you are. You need to stay on the sidelines when the discussion turns to economics. You can't even cherry-pick and quote your favorite left-wing economists without proving how retarded you are.
