and who ended up with this wealth Tom because, from what I can see, the private sector pretty much had their way over the last decade or so and put us in the fix we're in. Sure seems to me the leaders of the private sector created wealth for just this tiny subset of our nation and either sat on it or spent it elsewhere.
In the meantime, the rest of us lost standard of living as our infrastructure deteriorated around us. Maybe your philosophy, if implemented by by sharing and compassionate folks, has real potential but there seems to be very few with those traits in that group.
Come on Tom, do more than just spout the ideology. Tie it into human beings because they're going to the be ones that have to implement it. So far they aren't real good at the details.
