    see above "average vs median".

    USA is VERY WEALTHY but it's extremely unequally held.

    eg, 10% of American's own 90% of stocks, avg CEO makes 400+ times the avg salary, etc, etc, etc.
    No, we are not a healthy nation. It isn't the imequity that's a problem, it's the reason for the inequity.

    Middle class jobs are being outsourced. It is because it is cheaper to produce and ship than make them here. It all has to do with regulations and taxation. Everything you lib s want to do that hurts the corporations is why they buy from overseas sources.

    greed is a natural instinct that every human is born with imho, it drives us to pursue profit and wealth. it can be beneficial to the growth of economy within a certain limit, but when it goes beyond the limit, it'll start to make opposite effects. if you were a billionaire owning a oligarchy that monopolizes an entire industry in the US (or even in the world), even though you know it's no good thing to the economic health, would you sell off your company for the good of the economy? no, you will continue to extort the remaining 10% from the 80-90% americans. it'll finally reach a point where the workers have no option but to fight back (like the October Revolution) and you'll lose everything, but you're still gonna enjoy your wealth sucking the working class's blood as long as you can
