Guys, I am still waiting to see some data that disproves the idea that all incremental wealth goes to the top in the US. I have data that supports this idea, which I pulled from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. I would be happy to share the data with you by request. I'm at brian.t.murphy@sbcglobal.net.

Now, I have seen a lot of the usual beligerent right wing response to my inquiries. And, some well-intentioned but unsatisfying appeals to comparative GDP growth and such. But, I haven't seen anything that can't be easily explained as a measure of growth for which all the gains go to the top.

Please present some iron-clad data that shows that people who are working hard, playing by the rules, keeping out of trouble, striving for the dream are in any way advancing their position in this country as it is currently rigged.

If we wanted to attain a true level playing field in this country, "inheritance" should be abolished. If you die, wealth should be re-distributed back into the system. After all, you're dead! Money has no meaning to you. This would give everyone in this country a fair chance since you truly started from nothing. Imagine if Paris Hilton couldn't inherit all that money and actually had to get a real job!

So minimum wage is suppose to be increasing from 5.15 to 7.25 sometime this year. Some argue that minimum wage is so low that it isn't in line with the cost of living--increasing it would help those that needed to be helped the most. Other agrue that minimum wage is exactly what teenagers and unskilled workers deserve. Increasing minimum wage would only increase unemployment and indirectly increase the price of producing goods, causing prices to rise and creating the same situation we are currently in. Which side of the fence do you ride?

OK, so someone sells dollars and buys euros, and, because of the exchange rate, makes a packet of money, for example. Nothing was produced and sold, and no service was provided and paid for. So the profit from the transaction comes literally from nowhere. So how does one spend what does not exist? Is anyone out of pocket? It's all a magical mystery. How can we run a world this way?
