It is another utopian brain washing scheme to take from those who has prospered. We have two generations of folks who have a shameless sense of entitlement and it is spreading to more "needy" folks who would rather collect food stamps than work a 40 hour week. Or so I think...

Simple. If you work hard and make money no one should have the ability to take it away from you.

I love this question because it is obvious you have no idea what the idea of 'income equality' even means and you are generically spinning it to reflect communisim. Im sorry to say this, but income inequality means that the super-rich keep getting richer while everyone else's income stagnates. It is nothing more than that despite what all the conservative talkers say. Poor people are not lazy, most just have no opportunities to excel like you did. Don't believe me --take a trip to rural West Virgina sometime and ask some people what jobs there are.
It is so easy to blame the poor for their own situation. Rich people love to do that.

MSgt Marvin Kinderknecht - Financial equality should be tied to equality of effort, equality of education, equality of location, etc., etc., etc...

I don't buy into the socialist BS of the liberal left and the current Administration (and that includes Hillary).

Inflating the income will increase production/service costs and will cause inflation as prices go up.

There will never be financial equality. It's a pipe dream. Socialists and communists would have you believe it's a fact. What I earned is mine, unless I CHOOSE to give it to someone else.

Why would someone put the time and effort into becoming a doctor if they got paid the same as an auto mechanic? The reason capitalism is successful is because you are what limits your ability to earn. You have to work hard and work smart.

Sadly the government makes it harder for American owned small businesses to get started these days by ridiculous regulations. They also give more help, benefits, and tax breaks to immigrants to start a small business than they do veterans.
