Apparently, Hillary Clinton plans to fix income inequality in America by making the rich poorer and literally toppling the top one percent. This way, I suppose, it will make the poor "look" a little richer. Forget about the fact that most of the nation's wealthy got that way by creating companies that, in turn, create jobs.
If she does topple the rich, how are we going to pay for all those liberal federal programs that benefit the poor? The top one percent already pays more in taxes than the bottom 90% of all wage earners combined. All this so that the bottom 43% can pay no taxes and the poor can survive on programs like food stamps and Medicaid. But, Hillary still thinks the rich are unfairly treated when it comes to taxes.
Of course, this comes from the mouth of a woman whose combined wealth with her husband is estimated to be between $100 and $200 million dollars.
Maybe she needs to topple herself.
