Jim, You are so funny. If we took all the money in the U.S from everyone and distributed it equally to all the people, in less than 10 years the rich people would again be rich and the poor people would again be poor.
Wasn't it Kruschev that said he would "Bury" us, here in the U.S. Well it didn't eaxctly work out that way, did it? In the Soviet System everything was dicitated by the state. When it was time to pick the vegetables they were picked, ready or not. When he visited the U.S. and saw the supermarkets he couldn't believe what he saw. And after he saw several of them he thought we were using the same product in several places to fool him. Here we had plenty of food in the stores. In the Soviet System people waited in line at the stores and many times were told that is all there is today. They had socalisim and we had free enterprise. Socalisim didn't exactly BURY Captialisim now, did it?
Ous system isn't perfect but it beats the hell out of anything else by a wide margin. You don't see riots in the streets because of Captialisim do you? That's because most people are more than satisfied with their lot in life here. True some complain but no one pays them much attention. The system works, it's just that simple.
