Data Point: Inequality of wealth? How ’bout inequality of decisions?

by Skip

Global InequalityFor those that wail against “income inequality”, I point out:

  • For hundreds (really, thousands) of years, there was little inequality – everyone was poor. Is that what you want again?
  • The high achiever nations were those that went to more free-market economies. Is not having wealth a goodness?
  • The continued WORST achieving nations were socialist / command-and-control ones.  Isn’t their inequality a result of a “bad decision” structurally – and you would return us to that?

    Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom and how the Government is taking that away. As an evangelical Christian and Conservative with small "L" libertarian leanings, my fight is with Progressives forcing a collectivized, secular humanistic future upon us. As a TEA Party activist, citizen journalist, and pundit!, my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture.
