Why Do the Rich Have So Much Power?

[PoliTalker]

Hello T. A. Gardner,

More government results in more concentration of wealth at the top of society. It's that simple.

No, it is not that simple at all.

The reason people have disdain for government, seek smaller government, is because of corruption.

A beautiful government with no corruption would be no problem. The size needs to reflect the size of the nation and the technology of society so that the government can effectively deal with the needs of the nation which become more complex as population and technology grows.

Corruption is the problem. Not the size of government.

Not the size of government, the amount of corruption. That is the problem.

A lot more complicated than that. He walked into a potential 2nd great depression he had to fix quickly. He allowed the bankers and banks to survive because he was convinced they could save the economy if he forced them to. It was a battle. You can argue he conceded too much, but he got the job done.

Yes, he got Trump elected. Congratulations.
