Now, if you divided the Clinton family fortune into all of, say, Arkansas or New York, I am never sure where they are from, every body gets about Three Bucks.
That's how capitalism works brother!! Hence unemployment is a serious threat to capitalists! The problem is, many capitalists are greedy and don't want to share... And they have put a government in place to ensure tax rates are crazy low... Selling the masses on trickle down lol!!

They are too narrow minded to see that eventually, the unemployed problem will roust and kill it for all of us... Sigh.

OK I got to stop posting lol! Note, I love capitalism... LOVE IT, but greed is killing it. Well, outright greed and a bit of I don't care for my fellow citizens...
