A third world hellhole is what you get. The policies you advocate can only be found in those third world countries. A tiny rich elite with enormous power over the political and economic system, a shrinking middle and a huge and desperate underclass with no access to proper education and health care. That is the oligarchy of your dreams and it is hell for ordinary folks.
Wow, oddly, that sounds like what you get with liberal policies. I'm sure it's just a coincidence.
The liberals are liars when they say they are against Big Business... the WTO just fined liberal Washington State for illegal corporate welfare for Boeing... liberals wouldn't do corporate welfare for billion dollar companies... yes they would... Merry Christmas...
I don't understand what you mean. How do "liberal" policies result in Third World conditions?
Detroit - A city in shambles, a ghost town that still has a population
San Francisco - Home prices so high only the elite can purchase them, homelessness rampant.
Chicago - Crime and murder rate out of control

The worst? High corporate taxes and trade deals which better other countries' citizens at the detriment of our own. It encourages companies to leave our country and to not repatriate the earnings because once again, the left wants to penalize them for doing so. Thus, we end up with more people on government assistance and underemployed driving the middle class out of existence but maintaining or increasing wealth at the top since they are able to operate globally after all while the workers of this country cannot. So while the left wants to scream the right's policies may increase income inequality, we know the left's policies do so.
did it happen under Obama or were the seeds planted before?
Many of the younger millionaires and billionaires in the 1% set came to age during the Obama years. Think the tech sector and a whole lot of other non traditional industries. These hip and unconventional new titans of industries were instantly attracted to the slick and charismatic community organizer/college professor , who like themselves was an outsider who broke boundaries to achieve the impossible.
It was the mixture of massive amounts of personal wealth, SJW proclamations at posh soirees, pc soundbites and the hip factor (Beyonce was now obligatory entertainment) so Obama was making inroads into the rich set and liking every second of time with his rich client base. Our president would glady visit a rich 1%er in Chicago, play golf, shmooze no end, than ever visit an inner city community there.
Obama for all his faults was a gifted salesman, captivating all with soaring oratory and enthralling the very rich with a down home folksy persona with the intellect and wit to drive home a message. In devoting so much time to his new fan base, Obama decided it better to move on in with them. The hip president would be where he always belonged, with the elite and wealthy, and somehow forgot about going home to govern when the lights went down in Manhattan.
Th 0.1% have been catered to by every president since Reagan. To the detriment of the rest of us.
