How the political world evolved to this point?

21. Spot on, Kentuck.

Not enough police to deal with crime investigations, crime rising exponentially. Not enough money in city coffers to add resources?

Not enough teachers to educate our young demographic. No money to pay them better?

Roads, bridges, buildings in disrepair due to a lack of money.

This list could go on forever. And, it doesn’t have to if the rich would simply pay their fair share, and not a penny more. Why do we have these problems? Answer -the scam called trickle down economics.

The rich need to be grateful for their wealth. The rich need to respect the low wage workers who make the very products that allow them another Gulfstream. The rich need loyalty the the country that allowed them succeed.

I have no problem with millionaires, billionaires or trillionaires. They built their success. If they cannot find it within themselves to part with their beloved money, then it’s time to enact strong Kennedy tax era laws to build back better again. It’s that simple. You need infrastructure money? You’d have it. You want environmental form? You’d have it. You want more “made in America”? You’d have it if those scum sucking bastards just paid what all of the rest of us have to pay.

It can be done, but it would take balls the size of church bells (thanks, Dabney Coleman) to pry the money out of their grubby little hands.

Getting the rich to pay their fair share would solve countless problems, so why is it so hard to do?
