Which party platform increases income equality? (wages, treason, Nebraska, parties)

[Mtnluver8956]

I think either democrats or libertarians?

Income equality is a ridiculous goal. The entire concept is predicated upon the inability of its supporters to understand basic economics.

No such thing as income inequality.

Uh - what?

You're telling me that you can't plot all incomes in the US and evaluate the gaps between those income brackets?

Well, it's sure as hell not the GOP. I don't know enough about all the parties to vote.

The party of treason’s tax scam bill will have 80% of the benefits going to the richest 1%.

No one thinks everyone's income should be equal. But what we have now is an unlevel playing field that's tilted strongly to the 1%. This unlevel playing field has caused huge increases in income to the top while wages have stayed mostly flat for years. The working person is not getting their fair share of increased output and productivity.

Some earn more than others. Fact of life. Want fairness, go to Venezuela where everyone is equally miserable.

Yup... the guy in big city California for some reason doesn’t make the same as the guy in little town Nebraska... duh comes to mind...

Of course it's the Republicans. They are a lapdog for the rich and rig the system in their favor. They don't even hide it anymore.
