The subject is inequality of wealth/assets.  What, if anything, should the obumbler and his minions do about it?  They'd like to talk about it, I hear.

Many years ago, when I was drawing a pay check, I and my coworkers were responsible for introducing new processes, materials, and products into our manufacturing system.

We always tested the new process, etc., on a small segment of our system.  We never introduced a new idea or material in the whole system without at least a trial on a limited basis.

I have a suggestion:  There is an undeniable disparity of wealth/assets (even income) between the cities of Detroit and San Francisco.  Why not try redestributing the wealth in these two cities first?  Take the wealth of those living in San Francisco and give it to those living in Detroit.  Give it time to simmer (Maybe a year or two?, you decide).  Observe the results.  Then decide how to procede in the entire country at large.

What ya think?

To clarify:  You would not have to take all the wealth of San Francisco.  Just enough of it to make the two cities equal proportionately based on population.   I believe there are about 800,000+ in Frisco, and about 700,000+ in Detroit, but the "wealth" could be proportionalized.

I am certain those in san fran would be most happy to give up their money to those unfortunates in detroit   yea sure! And perhaps those in hollywood, who espouse the liberal agenda would be  the first to step up and throw in their money and those inside the beltway would gladly like to have equality and would defer their huge incomes for the "cause".  In actuality, the libs think that corporate America are the "bad guys" and should not be allowed to make money. Maybe they should realize just who pays those taxes that give them the cushy lifestyles that they enjoy.

What? No libs want to defend the lib "inequality" bull? Perhaps you all figured out if you took all the "wealth" away from the wealthy and gave it to the poor in a few years it would be exactly the same. The wealthy would work their way back to being wealthy and the poor would spend  their way back to being poor.
