re: #69 Lord of the Pies

This is some of the dumb shit that Bryan Tweeted this morning, which Jesus would say Bryan sucks.

Getting a loan, a.k.a. going into debt: Not a smart idea for the Little Guy, not at this point in time. And in any case, just a way for the Rich Guy to leech more funds off of the Little Guy for absolutely no effort. Interest is the life-killer.

Rich people do not buy American when it comes to cars/boats/etc. They buy Italian, German, and other such exotic luxury import brands. This does not help The Little Guy one bit.

“Never taken a paycheck from a poor person” is old, tired, and false for the majority of Americans. The reality of Small Business is that most of them are no better off than the two or three people they employ — they just have a mountain of debt masquerading as wealth.

Historical data flatly disproves the idea that More Treasure For The Wealthy produces jobs or wage increases. Real wages have been flat since the 70s, even NEGATIVE in some years (like recently!), yet the wealth gap has only been growing. The Rich Get Richer, and none of it ‘trickles down’. If anything, it just gets outsourced.
