Do your math. How does a policy that increases taxes on the rich and not the poor increase the economic divide. Besides, the formation of a divide does not happen overnight. Rather it takes decades and we know well what happened in the last decade. We sent kids of poor families off to a war so that rich folks could benefit from the war and with that we gave tax breaks to the rich. Never before did we see tax breaks during a war. On the contrary, we have historically seen tax increases to fund a war. So when we do things ass backward we can expect to see ass backward results such as deficits, economic divide increase etc. and these take almost a decade to form.

So get your head out of your ass, put on your thinking cap and you will soon sound like a thoughtful dude.
