Those rich people already pay the bulk of income taxes. The poorest 50% actually pay very little in taxes and the programs they depend upon are paid for by those wealthy you despise. Yes some are fortunate to have been born into a wealthy family but why envy them? It's been proven over and over that the very wealthy aren't any happier than average people. They just have more money.
when youre poor youre not as happy as you are as middle class. i agree iwth you rich :censored2:s arent happier than middle class. because we want econoimc mobility not a rigid system where you are either born rich or poor.

You implement a system that tries to insure equal outcomes for everyone you'll end up with mostly poor except the powerful who control everything.

Every communist country tried to insure equal outcomes for everyone. Didn't work and they're still recovering from those mistakes. China implemented capitalism to dig itself out of a hole. So they're a communist controlled country with millionaires running around. But it's lifted hundreds of millions of Chinese out of poverty.

Our system has a central government but much of the power is decentralized. Our system hasn't failed and the Chinese greatly improved when they allowed capitalism. You can talk about what you'd like to see all day but that's what has happened and is happening.

no power is economically centralized in the internal structure of corporations not to mention a few corporations control the market. and that govt has alot of power goes without saying and that it shapes the economy.

i will quote later why countries develop and what kind of economy china has from economists i listen to.

They have the means to travel, to live in very nice homes, drive nice cars, all the things our millionaires have. But they better not screw up. Awhile back a lot of dogs here died from high end dog food produced in China that had fillers mixed in to be more profitable that proved to be poisonous to dogs. The Chinese government ruled that company had brought shame on the state and executed several of their executives. Executive took on a whole new meaning.
