Obviously. How many GM cars is Paris Hilton going to buy? Extreme wealth inequality is innately bad for America on so many different levels.

Whereas you spread her money amongst a reasonable population and you get 2000. The math's not that hard.

Thankfully I have no desire to do such a thing.

So glad you support aristocracy and economic stagnation.

Talk about hyperbole. We didn't have economic stagnation for 60 years under the old policies.
I'm presuming you're talking about the post WWII boom which saw extremely high tax rates on high earners.

Along with much higher levels of defense spending and much lower levels of spending on things like health care and education.
Which is not at all what we're talking about. We're talking about taxation, not spending.
