the 62 wealthiest people own as much as the bottom 50%

5. First off, most of that wealth is on paper -- seize it, and it would evaporate and preppers would be

running the world for decades while the rest of us scrounge for food and hope we don't get shot by roving bands of armed racists.

Second, how much do you think would be available if we took it all and distributed it to 300,000,000 Americans and 5 Billion foreigners who are also poor? But, just for giggles, do it with Americans only getting the wealth.

I do think we need substantial tax increases on the wealthy and probably some increase on most people making over $70K or so to accomplish what we need for health care, education, safety net, jobs, etc.
