>You're changing the subject. Besides, the American economy never looked like that "ideal distribution" in the past. Not even close.

How did I change the subject?

>That's so stupid. You really think the top 1% dictates what the bottom 50% demand?

I didn't say that. What I said is that the economy looks a lot more like what the top 1% wants than what the bottom 50% wants.

>The reason why the top 1% do so well is because they know how to meet the needs of the rest of the nation. They don't force the nation any more than you or I can force them to do anything. Except those in government.

Uh, there's a li'l thing called a "lobbyist." And "political contributions."
