So you ENVY Musk's wealth and Trump's wealth?

You claim Musk and Trump make so much more money than you do, and you ENVY them?

The greatest economist of all time had a brilliant response to such childish ENVY.

What those people who ask for equality have in mind is always an increase in their own power to consume. In endorsing the principle of equality as a political postulate nobody wants to share his own income with those who have less. When the American wage earner refers to equality, he means that the dividends of the stockholders should be given to him. He does not suggest a curtailment of his own for the benefit of those 95 per cent of the earth’s population whose income is lower than his.



Just remember, the American HOMELESS are all a bunch of Elon Musks, compared to the average China resident, or the average India resident.

@Reason10 says, of tRump,
And he wound up giving America the best economy of all time and WORLD PEACE.
DEAD WRONG ON BOTH COUNTS!!!

Clinton gave us a FAR better economy, and there were plenty of shooting wars in Africa and the Middle East during tRump's first term.

To paraphrase St Ronald of Reagan:

The trouble with our conservative friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so.

1. KKKlinton made Saudi Arabia cut its oil output, which caused American gasoline prices to skyrocked. He raised taxes on THE POOR. His negligence in foreign policy allowed a five year operation (the destruction of the World Trade Center) to take place under his nose. President Bush inherited a RECESSION and a TICKING 911 TIME BOMB. KKKlinton was tied with Jimmy KKKarter as the two WORST presidents of the 20th Century.

2. President Trump INHERITED that clusterfuck from Saddam Hussein Obama (who helped create ISIS, by leaving them billions of dollars' worth of American military hardware. At the end of Trump's term there was PEACE in the world, and PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST for the first time in history. It took two years of President Jill Biden (while Adolf Biden napped) to PAY Ukraine to involve itself in a shooting war with Russia. President Jill also ARMED THE FCKING TALIBAN by leaving billions of dollars of American military hardware behind. SEems like all Trump is able to these days is bail the country out of the clusterfuck the goose stepping DemoNaZIS have inflicted on us.
