INEQUALITY! .. Robert Shiller on winning the Nobel rang alarm bells re INEQUALITY .. Credit Suisse have come out with a recent report ..
Robert Reich has narrated a new film "INEQUALITY FOR ALL" in which he repeats that inequality is the biggest problem in America (America is the outlier) .. in Europe, Russia (most measures worse than the US) .. yup, it is becoming the same all over the world .. Europe, Japan, China .. it's not just FAIRNESS ..
LISTEN UP YOU CONSERVATIVE CLOTS .. it's a DEMAND thing .. PURCHASING POWER! .. the rich would do better with a smaller share of a bigger pie .. the shutdown has been an enemy of economic growth .. these are the focus areas Reich outlined .. EDUCATION job training access .. INFRASTRUCTURE .. TAX SIMPLE INCLUDING SALES TAX AND PAYROLL TAXES and everything else ARE PROGRESSIVE .. RESTRAINING WALL ST'S GAMBLING INSTINCTS .. ADEQUATE MINIMUM WAGE AND INCOME TAX CREDIT THAT ALLOWS MINIMUM EARNERS TO GET OUT OF POVERTY .. i put them in caps in hope it may help some economic deniers get the picture .. i mean we have said it all for years ..
.. no doubt all liberals/progressives over years have expressed concern and awareness on the question of rising inequality .. while it is sad to say there has been/still is some considerable illogicality .. even outright DUMFUCKERY .. on the side of tooo many (not all) conservatives/libertarians on that same most important question .. as we know the poison of rising inequality is important for all to understand clearly .. crass inequality is not good for economies .. period ..
