This happened in the 50s and 60s. If one made over something like $300k per year, that extra money was taxed at the marginal rate of 90%.

Raymond Sullivan
Raymond Sullivan "All Jobs" is just an exaggeration but not entirely impossible. The only jobs under a republican government maybe the military, and that is a form of jobs going out of the country. I can see a WW3 with Trump or many other republicans as president.
No one should worship greed. It will only bring ruin.

Raymond Sullivan Break big corporations up. Monopolies were never a good idea. Go back to the days of small business. Fresh Food. Clean Water. Do you think corporations should never fail?
A healthy economy needs to be rid of unhealthy bloated corporate execs, that steal from the smaller share holders.
