way

At that point

Yes, that's another story, however.

You can just spend it directly with the government itself

It issnt

Top Down economics has been proven to not work

greediness is another topic.

To make it work you have to force the top to spend the money they way you want them to

At which point that is just government control, so why give them money

I don't disagree with you on that, I'm disagreeing with you on implementing a 90% tax on the wealthy.

The stimulus package, 2 trillion, specifically banned stock buybacks at the Requestof trump

Because last time he gave breaks / money to the top

They were greedy

And you cant convince someone to not be grreedy by asking

You have to force them

Again, greediness is irrelevant. I mentioned Trump's cuts to demonstrate how tax cuts brought in more wealthy people. I used that fact to demonstrate that, respectively, if you implement a 90% tax on them, they will leave.

unless you want to warp back to the 50's.

They can go to so many other countries where their revenues will be 1000% higher than in a country which collects the 90% of their incomes.

They won't be good, loyal citizens. They'll just follow the path of gold.

And the path of gold has no loyalty or honour.

@Koninos During the 50's, in a family of 4 - just the father could work - and make enough money to support all 4 in a middle-class suburban life with 2 cars, and still have enough money to buy luxuries and go to vacation.

Because of a combination of decisions and reforms to the economy

To say it is impossible to create such conditions is untrue

But the economy, back then, wasn't dependant on the wealthy. Now it is, so it's indeed utopian and unrealistic to implement a 90% tax on the wealthy.

Also strategically lame.

As i saidd gradual integration is possible

If we focus on improving the middle class

It is possible

No. You'll just get to the point, gradually or not, that the wealthy will leave due to heavy taxation.

So?

And no they wont

50's disprove that

So you lose a hell lot of revenue.

Fuck the 50's, in the 50's the wealthy had loyalty, were patriots and they were not predatory multinational companies.

Which guide America's economy today.

And politics, as well.

But you make the assumption that is utterly *impossible* to fix these issues.

Difficult yes, but impossible? No

Today, impossible.

What do you mean today?
