So now we have it. You're retired, so I take it you receive A SS Check do you?
Where do you think that money comes from baba? It comes from taxpayer funds.
It's not from one individual. So in other words, that money you get from the federal government,
is trickling down to you, in the form of a SS check. In essence, consumers from all over the country
pay to the federal government tax money, so you can get a SS check each month.
There isn't a dime's worth of difference between the feds paying out money they get from ( taxpayers),
or as you say, consumers. Then there is a business owner making lots of money, and paying his employees. The money from the owner is trickled down to the employee from the purse of the business owner. No business owner, no business, no job to perform so you can receive a paycheck.
This is basic stuff baba. It's like arguing which came first, the chicken or the egg. Who the hell cares.
They are both here now.
So too is business owners and consumers. You want to receive more money from the ... Top 1%...
business owner? Make your self more valuable to the employer, and he may very well give you a pay raise. Or, you could save up some money, and start your own business.
Business owners just don't pop out of the sky. And getting to be in the 1% is not what you may think.
So before you keep posting any more of your drivel, go to google, look up how to create a business.
Out of 100 businesses that startup, in three years there will only be 30 left. And after 5 years, there will only be 5. You want to be in the top 1%? Take a risk. Put your money and talents on the line.
No risk, no chance to be in the 1%.
You sitting on your ass and complaining about the 1% is a laff. As I said, you don't have a clue baba.
