The top 1% of Americans now own more wealth than the entire middle class combined. Anyone who thinks this is a good economy should reconsider the word “good.”

Billionaires in the private sector is a result of capitalism. Billionaires in government is a result of Socialism. Capitalism all the way.

Lmao did forced closures help that or hurt that?

The top 4 or 5 people own more than the bottom 50%. Within a decade the top 2 or 3 will have more wealth than the bottom 80%.

It’s good for the ruling class. That’s all they actually care about…
Replying to @marwilliamson
So are you inferring they are doing something wrong to build wealth or the middle class is dumb?
It's called capitalism for a reason.
Replying to @marwilliamson
I'm not really angry that some people are wildly successful in this economy. I just want them to do something that benefits society with the wealth it brings them. Wealth just for the sake of wealth is greed.
