Egypt - revolution. Colombia - drug wars. Georgia - half-demolished by Russia.
Again, good company.
A stable happy nation requires a fat and happy middle class. If you want a ****-storm, concentrate the wealth into just a few hands. When everyone else gets tired of it, things are going to look really bad.
This Ayn Rand fantasy world that some people are living in, where the capitalists can just take all their money and live on an island with no employees, customers, or servants is actually frightening.
Oh, so now it's certain allies whose income inequality we should seek to imitate? You yourself said we have comparable inequality to the UK and Australia...Australia which, btw, has single payer healthcare. Income inequality by itself means absolutely nothing. Complaining about a healthcare system that inefficiently allocates price is one thing...but I have no respect for armchair class warriors. It's not about Ayn Rand fantasies. It's about proletarian pipe dreams.
