Nor can the government maintain the ruling class with entitlement programs that dwarf the social security blanket, not even comparable. QEfinity, what kind of wealth distributing entitlement is that. The bank bailout. What planet are you on. It's not even comparable...
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
@syxforex believe me I am not a supporter of QEfinity.
"The day I became a winning trader was the day it became boring. Daily losses no longer bother me and daily wins no longer excited me. Took years of pain and busting a few accounts before finally got my mind right. I survived the darkness within and now just chillax and let my black box do the work."
I agree but that's structural changes.. In the meantime, we need tax revenues and where should we get it from?
Greece is extreme and that's not where even Democrats aim to go.. While the times are hard, its the job of government to exercise damage control for its people.. Until a politician has the answers to implement the structural changes to offset, who should carry more of the tax burdens? Its only natural that the wealthy pays more.. Why further burden the struggling?
BTW-I am trading and am riding a short from 96 o CL and got 2 scales off.. aiming for 95 on last..
Speaking of welfare and playing fields. Welfare exists because the playing field is not level. The majority of people on welfare don't want to be there, they would rather work 3 jobs if they can find them. Problem is, because the field is not level, they have to take those 3 jobs which still is not enough for their basic needs. The decks are stacked against them, and they get stuck in that hole, void of opportunity due to the uneven playing field. They can't even afford to get sick, because they can't get health care. It's easy to brush that aside sitting in front of our array of 6 trading monitors.
Many do not want to be on welfare. But I have worked extensively with the down and out via non profit service and it is not that simple. Many people also prefer to be on welfare. The system is highly abused because of the way the government runs it.. There those who truly need help and then there are others who are perfectly able to work and not disabled but somehow get a "disabilities" designation and get a check from the government every month and have no intent to work ever. Amazing how many times I have seen this.
I have watched people climb out of welfare and become very successful so I am not sure how the playing is unlevel in that regard. They may have a more difficult start but they refused to be a victim and clawed their way out. The rules were the same for a person who started in the middle class. In fact I am sure there are many middle class that are now poor and many poor that are now middle class and even rich. I lived in NYC at one time and my income was considered border line poverty but I did not whine but fought my way out. The guy trying to stay at top of middle class was playing by same rules I was playing by.
Big government will only make it more difficult for people to climb out. Big government is not a leveler for the poor. It will take middle class down and make it harder for poor to climb out.
