@OldCountryDoctor @Marlowe2 Henry Ford (paraphrasing) knew that he had to pay his employees enough to buy cars and go adventuring. The middle class drives the economy. Give the rich more money they horde it, give it to someone who's house needs repair or who needs a new car.

@MidnightRider @OldCountryDoctor @Marlowe2 wealth isn't hoarded, it's reinvested where it is must likely to grow-creating more wealth.
Wealth handed to someone who needs a new car is a static one off transaction that kills wealth.
@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN @OldCountryDoctor @Marlowe2 Car needs, insurance, fuels, maintenance, tires, state registration fees. parking fees, ticketing fees from states. I do agree with you that wealth is reinvested by the rich but not in the way the Republicans claim where high paying jobs are the mission of their reinvestment. My brother has told me my entire life we have to "kiss up to the super rich" to receive our crumbs, I hate that GOP axiom.
