Lot of discussion on the news lately about MLK. One of the things I overheard was the comment that capitalism hasn’t prevented poverty. Poverty is a boon to the tax and spend Democrats. Poverty creates a class of voters for the Democrats that is dependent on government handouts. Inflation is a tool that Democrats use to create poverty. In short, inflation is created by governmental policies to keep the downtrodden, downtrodden.
Poverty is not caused by capitalism any more than your rain is caused by wet sidewalks.
You are so correct $$$
We’ll never reverse exorbitant government spending as long as politicians can bribe special interest groups with money to get re-elected. Term limits is the only possible answer and the chances of that happening are slim and none and slim has left town.
