Indeed it does, but I DO NOT want another political discussion...I'm just going to say, Archi, be careful what you ask for, cause you just might get it all, and then some you don't want. When you remove the rich-middleclass-poor system you get everyone being poor in the end, except the government of course. Here's why: When everyone is payed the same amount, there is no incentive to work harder. That is what keeps an economy healthy, more work=more gain. Once you remove that only the government has any money, because they print it. Everyone else is working for the same amount so they have no incentive, and so don't work at all, which ends up being like...cold war era Russia
If that happens, I will move to Europe in a heartbeat, so long as they aren't the same way by then.
And iced, thank you for being another voice of reason. Basically what I just said in a nutshell but you beat me too it.
