Have you noticed that it has become socially acceptable to tell poor people how to spend their money…

…yet when we tell rich people to stop hoarding money/pay their workers fairly, the response is always, “It’s their money!”

Rich people do not hoard their money. They pay the most taxes and they create the jobs that make this country work.

I have a problem with intentionally poor people who buy Mercedes with "dey food stamp." That's not their money.

@Reason10 Prove it. Provide evidence of even one "poor person" who has bought a Mercedes with "dey food stamp".

@Reason10 But they also don't pay their workers fairly, my point, which you ignored. That's why more and more people are working but cannot afford to live.

@G7J2O What you have ignored is the fact that ALL PAY IS FAIR. It is a sum both sides have AGREED UPON voluntarily. And all pay ACCURATELY REFLECTS THE MARKET VALUE OF THAT LABOR.

A hospital janitor does not make as much money as a Heart Surgeon because THE HEART SURGEON IS WORTH MORE MONEY.

It's NOT the job of the employer to entitle an employee to a comfortable living. It is the job of the employee to have a skill set that is WORTH A COMFORTABLE LIVING.

And the REASON the mediocre workers cannot afford to live is 99 percent due to Democrat policies which have given America the WORST inflation of all time and made EVERYTHING more expensive. Democrat TAXES and that dumbass climate change lie has made gasoline unaffordable. Allowing illegal aliens to violate our borders freely is why housing demand skyrocketed, making rents too high for those who work at lower income levels.

Don't blame the employers for the results of Democrat policies.
