Sir;... Do you know what I think??? If you want an economy to work you loan it money, and to pay it back the economy will work... If you want people to work, pay them.... If you want them to work harder, pay them less... And if you want to work them hardest; make them pay the bulk of taxes... It is possible to get a single man to pay his own wages, and pay taxes, and make profit; and all for at third of what he produces... If you push people hard enough they will sell you everything they own at a loss... They will sell you their future to pay interest, and the capital built up by generations... All you have to worry about is sucking too much money and wealth out of the poor too fast because if you do, your class will choke on what you can't swallow while workers find they can afford nothing without collateral to borrow against... ..You have the ideal system there old buddy... How did it ever work before the government stepped up to transfuse wealth into its open veins every few years... How do you sell such a lame idea of an economy to people??? Is it with Chinese Arithmatic??? Doesn't it ever appear that nothing adds up??? If you count the cost of infrastructure, crime, war, poverty, pollution, education, and medication doesn't it seem like some numbers are missing from the balance sheet??? I think you rich folks have a problem with book keeping, and you count on government to cover your shorts... The thing is, that government can hardly cover our shorts if it is covering yours... So figure it out brightlight... If the price of a teaspoon of rich is a boatload of poverty how can you call your economy a success??? We have to get something out of the deal too... It isn't all about me, and it isn't all about you... If we can't all make it to a happy place together, my bet is that the rich will go over board first... Who knows what will happen if things don't improve??? I would like to point out all the people of this world that found at the end that they had too much money and too few friends... Make friends with the people of America...Quit taking money we haven't made yet to mark your bills paid... Let's all be friends... Let's all be Americans...Thanks...Sweeney
