For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

This is exactly why we have crappy TV sitcoms and Walmart.

Oh yeah and religion, I guess. I thnk maybe someone famous might have said something about that once.

hmm how about NO. if they didnt want to be poor, maybe should have went to college into computer science instead of durr durr philosophy or fart history????

what if the guvmint just mass produced some cheap poo poo moonshine from all the subsidized corn or something (they can make like 5000000 gallons for pennies if they didn't tax it all) and give it to the poors so they can drink away their misery and decrease surface population?

financial collapses happen when a significant portion of the population all together has sumptuous rib dinners that cause the laziness quotient to exceed normal levels, sometimes these naps can last more than five years such as in the Great Depression, when buying stock on margin allowed too much of the population to take a day off resulting in the holocaust and the formation of Israel

there's no jobs being created because nobody has enough spending money to buy poo poo that will cause companies to have to meet a growing demand

jobs don't get created just because a rich person is feeling benevolent. jobs get created when there is a profit motive to do so. if the new employee is going to be profitable what do you care if the government takes some off the profit - you're just not going to expand? Fine, someone else will then.

It's not like a rich person goes 'hrm I have an extra $150m I think I'll create some jobs today.'

laziness in the work force and taxes have nothing to do with it, and fwiw the US workforce works way harder on average than most other western countries. In Europe they laugh out of shock and pity when I tell them people have to work 2 jobs for 75+ hours a week with no benefits and they do it with a smile in their face.

The problem is the economy is stagnant because the middle class is basically nonexistent at this point and no one is buying poo poo. For a while we just gave everyone credit but you see how that worked out.
