43. the problem is...
That money is either zero-sum or inflationary. Redistribution of wealth is required which means YES, we do need to hurt the rich a bit. I don't know why people don't get this. OWS gets it, and the American people get it, hell... Warren Buffet gets it! But somehow the third way dems keep telling us the same old myths about a tide raising all ships (which is only slightly better a metaphor than 'growing the pie').
