Declining numbers of insured people, isn't about people getting poorer (and even if it was you still haven't shown "at the expense of") its about health insurance becoming more expensive.


Tim, stop the nonsense........I have given you enough articles to support an army of people who don't believe the rich are getting richer at the expense of the poor. If you don't want to believe it, then just say so and we'll agree to disagree.

"Americans without health insurance jumped by 1.3 million ..."

Americans with health insurance jumped by 1.4 million."

That post no more addresses the issue of the rich getting rich et al than if octopus [sp?] had started talking about victory gardens during WW II. Hence my response:

So then......why would you reference his post?

Let's assume there is an economic pie worth $1000.

Lets assume the moon is made of green cheese. Its just as reasonable. You don't have an economic pie to divide. There is no fixed amount of wealth to divide. And even if there has been no economic growth during a particular period, you still aren't dividing pie. People get the wealth by making the wealth or by owning investment which produce wealth.


Nothing you have posted in nearly a month has refuted the claim. So let's "assume" you don't want to hear the truth and drop the issue.
