In the USA as we speak, the wealthy are being held accountable for sheltering their wealth. Nothing wrong with that, however, the attack MOB are socialist/communists. They are attacking our nations security.

They are attempting to break down our social and economic structures to benefit people who do nothing to better themselves at the expense of the wealthy and hard working average Americans.

I am amazed at what the USA has degenerated into.

It will mean higher taxes for all.

The wealthy are securing their wealth by investing it in places where they are not subject to US tax but are protected by US Law. These wealthy people are, and always have been, the enemy of the poor and the working class. In fact lowering US labor standards to third world levels is one of the long-term goals of the investment community in this country.

These people do not distribute wealth through wages and minimalist welfare; they concentrate wealth unto themselves and hire people that are very skilled at creating business methods and tax laws to that end.

Class warfare has never ended in the US. It is just that most of us are on the loosing side.

You're funny, why do you lump "wealthy" and "hard working Americans" in the same bucket? Hard working Americans are being stiffed by the actions of the wealthy, what is profit for them takes jobs and value away from you.

You shouldn't talk about the IRS like that.

Not one word of this is remotely true in any way, where in the world do you think this stuff up? Seriously, do you drugs or something?

I'm more concerned the endemic misspelling of the word "losing."

Along with attempting to resurrect the candidacy of Norman Thomans, Greg among others appears to be loosing the ability to spell.

I mean "losing."

Our country has advanced at a rapid pace because people have incentive to be successful.

paullysc -
I am not on drugs and I am not making this stuff up. I am clearly describing the goals and functions of our economic system. Capitalist economic systems by their very nature are effective at concentrating the wealth created by the exploitation of natural resources by the working class into the coffers of the rich. This process, in its natural state, has some limits to the concentration by creating free markets with very low entry costs. The system we are using protects the wealthy and the concentration by having high entry costs, using a crony system to distribute investments and suborning government to protect the artificial monopolies set up to concentrate and protect wealth more efficiently.
The protection of wealth owned by the upper classes of society is the essences of class warfare and is acceleration to a faster rate than ever before. The problem with this system is that once the wealth is sufficiently concentrated the growth inducing investment fail to be made, the economy becomes militarized and soon falls apart due to the inefficiencies inherent in a monopolistic crony capitalist system.
