Concentration of wealth leads to public dissatisfaction with it, which then leads to full on socialism, which then leads to collapse, which then leads to anarchy, which then leads to concentration of wealth. In America we were able to strike a good balanced wealth distribution to avoid the swings of the pendulum that many other countries experienced between oligarchy and socialism. That is until Reagan took over and started pushing the pendulum to one side, assuming of course that it will never swing back.
I think you've got history wrong. Starting in the 60s and topping out in the 70s the US was leaning heavily socialistic, and Reagan merely swung the pendulum back.
lmfao... can you say that with a straight face?
moving from right of center to further right doesn't make right of center "heavily socialistic".
you have a scale like this or something?
