The economy is not a zero-sum game. The pie is growing all the time. Fewer people are poor.

A lot of it happened automatically through increasing "asset" values in financial services. People with investments, large and small, could just sit back and ride the coattails of greedy financial services conglomerates as they successfully influened legislation in their favor.

Stop lobbyist, stop corp. donations, strengthen conflict of interest laws for law makers and open finances of all elected public servants and your halfway back to real democracy! Oh, and get rid of the Fed. Res. like T. Jefferson did!

How’s it theft? If people buy products created by these entrepreneurs then they sure become wealthy.
