"The real and relevant fallacy is the idea that the wealthy take from society. The reality is they mostly create wealth."

In a lot of ways that is true. Problem repubs have is that they have allowed the creation of wealth to be concentrated in the few instead of the many. ie: the gutting of the manufacturing base and massive job and manufacturing facility offshoring only to see CEO and other senior exec pay soar as the country enters a recession based on the actions of the those same execs.

So the pendulum swung to far to the right.

Now lets hope the blowback doesn't kill the possibilities for reforming that blatant mistake.
