Most of wealth is in things like financial instruments which the poor shouldn't touch. What you want is income, which is more evenly distributed.
>>79097442
The 1% make most of their yearly income (usually something around 700k year or more) through capital gains which are taxed at a flat rate in the US.

Unless you just want free money because you're a pathetic piece of shit.
Proud to be in the 4%. Poor people are retarded shit for brains, instant gratification, materialistic, status signalling, money-pissing-away tards and deserve to be serfs. It's the natural order that these worthless, skill-less pigs toil in the mud and serve the rest of us. You should see the shit poor people do. You give them a dollar, they buy a song off itunes. They're worthless idiotic fuckwits. I hope the wealth gap gets even wider. I hope we institute a flat tax rather than "progressive." Poor people are lazy, ignorant gibsapes. The wealthy are so because they work hard, save, invest, and learn how to handle money to make it work for them.
God bless capitalism.

>Anyone who thinks everyone should have the same amount of money is a communist.
Nobody except trolls are saying we should have the same amount of money. But you can't seriously believe that growing wealth and income inequality isn't a problem.
The American post-war (and post-Great Depression) golden age, when fear of Communists was at its height in America, was a time when income disparity between social classes was at its lowest over the past century. The rich still controlled most of the wealth, but everyone in America saw their income grow.
Then something happened after 1980, in every chart of every metric of income or wealth. The gap has been widening ever since.

Nah, even if you eliminate the CEO's salary from McDonald's and distributed it to all the employees, it would result in something like a $0.14/hr raise.
However, if someone making minimum wage did things like primarily eat lentils, beans, eggs, and other super-basic foods, they'd be much better off without forking over ridiculous profits to Yum! Brands Inc every time they visit a Taco Bell and buy a $2.78 burrito that costs $0.31 to make.

>>79096884
Essentially, yes. But naturally in a subtler form.
Wage slavery is an underrated, underappreciated term - The global markets, the politics and the lobbying in-between all act to drive up profits at the expense of the working man - the wage slave. It's an unparalleled level of genius at work - disguising inflation as an increase on wages because the wage slave doesn't know the difference between "wages" and "Real-term wages (inflation adjustment)". Those with intellectual abilities are rewarded more, naturally, but they are still caught in the trap.
The true wealth in this world is just as it has ever been - people. The control of people, the shifting of work output onto "lesser peoples".
>>79099227
If any waiter ASKED me for a tip, I sure as hell wouldn't. Never heard of something like this in my life.
anyone saying that it's just capitalism doesn't understand capitalism.
With a perfect capitalistic society the middle class should hold the majority of the wealth and should represent the majority of the population.
Unfortunately we live in a system that is set up in such a way that when supply doesn't equal demand for goods and services that belong to the poor/middle class we allow capitalism to take its course and those businesses fail
But if the market is fucked for a wealth/upper 5% market we have fail safes that prevent those institutions from going under and being the victims of capitalism.
So when the rich fail they get pulled back up and the middle class and poor pay for it, but when the poor or middle class fail they are left to die as the market deemed.

That's 2/3rds correct. By creating the business you have begun the journey, but wealth creation comes through wealth generating assets - employees. By that logic although you would have created the business, allocated jobs, it is your employees that -on paper- generate the wealth. You just have the legal means to pick up the cash off the table.

This. The important thing is not wealth equality but upward mobility.
Trying to forcefully stop wealth inequality is just going to make everyone poor. That's why despite all of Britain's socialist attitudes the poor here are no richer than the poor in the more capitalist America.
>>79103154
>Something happened
What happened?
>>79107063
Merger of investment and commercial banking
Let's explain this in terms that a Marxist can understand:
>wealth
Wealth for the lumpenproletariat means food and housing.
Wealth for the proletariat means conspicuous consumption, generally of mass-produced items.
Wealth for the bourgeois means conspicuous consumption, generally of "ethical" or "artisanal" products.
Wealth for the capitalist rich means influence, generally via economic means such as starting a company, becoming an activist investor, funding lobbyist groups, and so on.
>where the wealth goes
If you take away wealth from the rich, then either it must go to one of the other groups, or it must go to the state.
If it goes to the state, the state will be inefficient in managing it, because the state is a centralised organ that doesn't understand the individual needs of its citizens.
If it goes to the bourgeois, like it is doing right now, it will be pissed away on "peacekeeping" wars, amnesties for illegal immigrants, endless new programs that don't do much good but do ensure constant employment for the bourgeois, and similar things.
If it goes to the proletariat, everyone will want a TV, but nobody will run a TV factory. The economy will start to collapse, the state will step back in, and shit will be sorted out.
If it goes to the lumpenproletariat, I have no fucking idea what will happen, but it will probably involve crack or meth and will result in a country looking like Africa.
>what do
1. convince the bourgeois that it's better to spend money on things that are actually helpful, then give them money
2. give the proletariat small amounts of money, but not enough to completely fuck up everything
3. either elevate the lumpenproletariat to proletariat or put them somewhere where they can't fuck everything up, like a mental ward

Great analysis, I like it. Speaking their language, very concise.
>>79096884
I always wonder with these charts, what they are counting as "wealth"?

>>79107243
based kangaroonigger knows what's up
>>79096884
the bottom ~25% have negative net worth. Are they subtracting the negative net worth form the next 25%?
b) for many of those households, social security and entitlements may be the single most valuable asset owned, but is completely and totally ignored by any of these studies. The net value of a Social Security account, if valued like an annuity is often $500,000+. Why not count that??
If that is counted, the wealthiest 10% (not 1%) have something like 40% of all assets and rest of distribution is much more equal.
Your figures rely on ignoring reality. Is this ignorance or intentional misleading on your part?

I guess you never learned about exponentials in school anon
>>79096884
There's a very simple solution to this shit that retards seem to be staunchly against
How much your job is worth is defined by how much your boss is willing to pay you, there's an upper limit set by the boss, and the lower limit where you will refuse to work (ideally these are the same) as you believe what you get isn't worth the work
However as an owner there's no upper limit. The simple fix is the government needs to tax them higher amounts. The key is it has to be a tax set case by case, a contact made between the business and the government, not a blanket one for all owners. Keep increasing the tax until you reach just before owners are wanting to sell, and there's your sweet spot
Basically capitalism with soft socialist policies (like any sane system) to prevent the gap from becoming too big, and a system to regulate how much an owner/stockholder is worth to his company. Flat taxes is what cause massive disparity.
And Scrap welfare

Joshua Sheats actually has a financial plan to retire before age 40 on a Wal-Mart wage. It's pretty extreme, but the fact that it's possible at the actual lowest-common-denominator job means anyone can afford it.
People trade investment opportunity for materialism.
Learn to cook. Stop buying cars where the payments are 20% of your income. Stop buying new cell-phones until you need a new one. Stop renting a house with 3x the square footage you need. Don't buy brand new clothes. Don't buy groceries at Whole Foods. Don't smoke cigarettes. Don't drink a case of beer a week. Don't go on exorbitant vacations every year. Don't buy Starbucks every day (or ever). Don't fill your house with useless junk. Don't waste money on "collectibles" to be part of a "fandom."

No it isn't. It's actually quite easy to make money if you already have money. Not all "trading" is speculative.
It's hard to get rich but it's easy not to be poor.
There's nothing wrong with being lower middle class. You can have all your needs met and still have enough to have fun weekends or give yourself an occasional treat. With the internet you really have enough to keep yourself entertained for free for all eternity. The problem with liberals is that they're jealous and hate the thought of people living large because they were either born into it or are just plain smarter and harder working than them. Both insinuate that they're superior than them, and that makes them envious.

Friedman wasn't even an Austrian. And Mises wasn't even an anarchist. You have no idea what you are even talking about.
>In a Keynesian economy which has a fiat based currency, government regulation that is independent of business, so no lobbying, is good.
We've been using Keynesianism for the better part of a century. Keynesianism does not work. How is government regulation a good thing?
>>79113582
>Keynesianism does not work.
In a non-facistic country.
Facism and Keynesian economies go hand in hand. You really need to control EVERY aspect of the people to make Keynesian theory work well.
>How is government regulation a good thing?
Because a Keynesian economy literally depends on crushing the freedom of the people to keep the numbers in check.
An Austrian economy controls the numbers to keep the people in check.
Their mechanics are completely different and work in different governments and situations.
Also, I wasn't defending the picture, just clarifying why regulation is necessary in a Keynesian economy.

the capital markets exist so that the excess profit will be reinvested into the consumer markets and allow them to grow
the problem right now is that most of that money doesn't make it into the consumer level, it gets repackaged and rethrown in the financial markets
TIME had a good article on it

That makes it a moot point to defend it with that argument in the context of the US.

While you try to get people down to your level, how about we try to get the bottom 1% up to their level. Hell, it's been done before. Would you really want to live like a king in the past? I won't even have access to half the things that will be offered in a minimum wage job

I don't think everybody should have the same amount of money, but there should absolutely be an upper limit.
Because
1. It is simply unethical for one person (or small groups of persons) to accumulate so much wealth far beyond their needs for living.
2. It is destabilizing when so few have that much wealth, because wealth empowers, and so much power 10:1 will corrupt somebody to seek even more power by depriving it from others.
Point #2 is absolute fact, as it has occurred within every form of government and state within every country of the world.

>explain plz
It's not exactly complex.
Because currency is variable in a Keynesian economy, and it depends on business cycles, you have to make sure no one abuses the system, like the banks did in 2008, where they cause the housing boom, which also massively increased the resultant downturn.
Whereas an Austrian economy ideally has a completely flat currency, and works on continual expansion, rather than cycles, so that no one can "cheat the system".
This makes regulation unnecessary.
> Also which is better in your opinion?
Depends on what you want to do, and how your country's economy is going to operate.
A biznocentric economy like the one we have now is much better in a Keynesian economy, but this causes stagnation in industry, the sciences, and other productive fields. Not to mention the psychological problems that come with a biznocentric culture.
An Austrian economy, or at least one similiar to it, is best suited for a nation on an exponential path of continued industrial and scientific development.
Personally, I like the Austrian one, as setting up a proper Platonistic fascist government to spearhead research is quite difficult, and an Austrian economy is much more capable of keeping itself afloat in the mean time.

That's a good post. Today an aussie didn't shitpost.

more like top 10-15% are fucking over the bottom 80-85%.
It needs to be a entire upper class genocide event.
Lawyers, post-doc social science, GS-10 and above gov officials, etc.

Capitalism destroys the bourgeoisie/middle class though.
>>79111354
My nigger. I plan to retire by 45 at latest. I've already done the math and factored in both inflation and taxes, with generous misc allowances and travel/luxuries budgets. On the most conservative earnings estimates.
Normies piss money away, and instead of taking responsibility for being morons they blame "da man" for keeping them down. Poor people are just niggers, which is probably why they breed with and act like them. If you live in the US and are poor, you're simply wasteful and stupid.

Do you even know what Keynesian economics is? Seriously I don't think that you do.

Actually looks to me quite like the diverging began around the mid 1970s; it simply became overly apparent by the 80s.

That's nice OP. Now show us the spending power graph.
>>79114902
1.) why?
2.) Wealth has nothing to do with it. Power needs not wealth to exist, just ask Mao.
>>79117533
I'm being polite but yes
maybe you'll be more comfortable if I just call them Jews... frankfort school mothercukers
But marxism has never been about true "equality" its about a select elite hyper capiltists
making mad bank by rendering the rest of society literally unable to compete with brainwashing
>>79096884
Its not slavery when the 80% are mostly mal-formed, incapable trash that should have died in infancy and instead are living on borrowed time from the producers who actually operate society.
>everything in this trivial little shit-flinging festival is based on the expectation that our comfy civilization will forever be the way it currently is
>when the power grid dies, all the millions of dollars "hard-working" citizens have built up is digitally stored in banks and is now worthless
>everyone in cities starve to death
In the end "making money" is yet another hobby like weightlifting or playing an instrument: some people live for it, others don't give a shit as long as they have something else to care about. Anyone defending it to this extent is defending kike greed, but none of it matters anyway because nobody wants to step back and see the big picture.
>>79118108
>>79117310
Capitalism and Marxism are both materialistic at their core. Why else would Jews be attracted to both of these ideologies?
Notice how in both Capitalistic and Marxist societies Jews try to stamp out spirituality. That's because they don't want people to be happy through their own ends, they want people to be dependent on them for their happiness. It is a matter of control
>>79119369
That's assuming that the world of matter and spirit aren't one and the same.
