>> To them, you can't have a true democracy if there is a huge gap between rich and poor. The strange that in the kind of democracy they envision, free enterprise is tamped down in favor some package of nebulous government mandates. Yet, free enterprise has dragged more people out of poverty than any system in the history of the world. We see it all over the place. The natural side-effect of free enterprise is that some people are more productive than others and wealth pools where the success is found. The gut reaction is to take some of that wealth and give it to the poor, which has the exact opposite effect from the one which is intended, i.e., to pull the poor out of poverty. It is strange. Almost like killing the goose laying the golden eggs.
