HOW DO YOU BREAK DOWN $13.5 TRILLION TOTAL U.S. INCOME...FAIRLY?



Okay, so I'm a Democratic Socialist who believes in spreading the wealth. Apparently I and that philosophy have failed miserably when a man can work for the U.S. Senate, earn only $360 a week, and is homeless. We're not in a 3rd -world country and this is taking place on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol, a symbol of equality for all. So much for symbols and so much for the founders of this country who couldn't possibly have imagined this would happen. Why is it the norm to neglect others on your way to being successful and wealthy? So here's my solution to the whole mess. Total annual U.S. income is around $13.5 trillion. There are 116.7 million households in this country. If my math is correct, that is $114,000 for each family. I can hear the mansion and yacht folks screaming now but I can also see the smiles on those kids' faces who haven't eaten in a couple of days.

Some households may consist of a single person, and another may consist of a family  of ten or more.  Is that fair to give 1 person 10X what another family gets per person?  :-)

Well, Mr. Nasty Jack*, if you come looking for silver and gold, you may just collect some lead instead.


*Any relation to Billy Jack?

I don't think "Household" would even include that homeless guy the OP was talking about, and some of those extended family polygamist freaks would count as a separate household for each wife.

If you look at welfare and how the US federal government administers it, you would see 25 cents on every dollar getting to the end user.
Assuming Nasty Jack is going to put them in charge of "spreading the wealth", the $114,000.00 per household will now be a little over $28,000.00
Depending on number per household that's going to put nearly all of them at the poverty level.
That sounds about right, because that's what socialism does best, it spreads poverty and misery equally.
