Thanks to Trump. "Prove it" you say? It's called the Stock Market Casino and it's participation is by and large only the top 10% of Americans.

At the same time news is out that young people can't afford to buy their own homes anymore once they become adults. News is also out that violence has been shown over history as the most effective and used response to re-balance inequality.

So how long until this whole house of cards comes tumbling?

Facts Again - top 10% are richer. Young people can't afford to buy houses. Violence proven in history as means cultures re-allocate wealth.

I don't believe it. Instead I choose to believe Captain 0.1% and his cabinet full of 0.1%ers will save us from the rest of the 0.1% global elite...because they know how to change the laws to benefit us and not themselves...or some nonsense along those lines.

But the vast majority of Americans who have any sort of retirement plan got richer too.

I don't think you get the gravity of the facts above. Re-read them. Only half the country is in some type of contribution where capital is in the market.

It is overwhelmingly the top classes who's wealth is in the market.

Isn't that what the rich do though? I don't think they intend on losing their money.

Will you really blame Trump if if a young adult majors in Philosophy and can't get a job?

Keep on with the sophistry. You'll get your wish, the nation is falling apart and will soon be "history".. Take care though that your head isn't on the platter, because if you read the facts above, this is a possible and likely conclusion for a lot of people.

Want to be rich? Do what they do. Won't get you to the 1% but it will to the 10%.
