...they will forever hoard the wealth, claiming some great calamity if they allow a bit of it to flow. They will forever say "Wait"....as Bill Cosby said in the great skit about the conversation between God and Noah..."How long can you tread water?"....I am about to go under, I can't wait very long.

Do we want the very few to continue hoarding the wealth for a rainy day? Or, do we call this a rainy day, and start investing? That is the choice this November.
