  1. If you want an economy to move... you have to incentivize the money to move. Poor people save money rich people spend it if you force them to invest it or lose it (inflation does this naturally as if they leave their money sitting it diminishes in value). If you want poor people to be able to save money you have to have a healthy economy and right now nobody has that because we've failed to keep the money moving and competitive by allowing mergers with minimal scrutiny I can't remember the last time a merger was disallowed because it would reduce competition. Taxing the 1% is a distraction from the real problem of failed antitrust law. What should always matter to you is how much money you have and how good a value you get for your tax dollars... if you are getting bad value that is whee the buck should stop, not hey why isn't the 1%er helping pay for my bad value goverment services. The 1% already has a job to do with their money and that is to fund the economy... because after the point of becoming a millionaire, there isn't much different in quality of life between a milllion bucks and a billion. And note this all can and has been done without force.... with the right incentives an economy can flourish naturally rather than be destroyed from the inside like ours is now.
