re: #7 HappyWarrior

I think the whole point for Romney and his campaign is to preserve the status quo of the already wealthy. Anyone who wants to improve their social standing is just a pest because they’re not part of the old boys and girls’ club.

That is because the untold truth (on the right at least which does all it can to deny it) is that to create new wealth you have to somehow take the wealth from those that all ready have it. You can’t generate new wealth in the USA out of thin air. It is an enclosed finite monetary system and trickle down does not work.

So those at the top of the ladder are deathly afraid of anything that will build wealth to those below the ladder because they know it will come from their inheritance which they are either hoarding or hiding overseas.
