[QUOTE="av8torntn, post: 867175, member: 8259"] Ok I'll bite in what nation are the poor better off than here? I would never only think of flat screen TV's and cell phones as the sole measure of wealth. You can't disregard that but I was thinking along the lines of the types of things that monetary inflation brought like the national retirement plan, education,our national health care, and add to that the quality and level of housing those being the most dominant causes of our economic problems and the largest reasons for the printing of more and more money. I say that fully understanding your position that we spend more money waging war than on social programs but I just disagree in that I think most social programs provide the vehicle for the government to take money to wage war. There has been a massive transfer of wealth in this Country not only from the rich to the poor but also from the wealthy states to the poorer states and while not efficient some benifit does make it's way down to even the poorest.
