1,826 billionaires in the world...


And many of them have much more than just a billion dollars.

The US alone has 536 billionaires at last count.

Is the goal of capitalism to create as many billionaires as possible? Should an economic system benefit the individual or society as a whole?

How much money does one person need to do everything he wants to do in life?

Do the people have a right to say how much money any one person can make in their life?

Yes. It should create more billionaires. More jobs more production. You morons are just jealous and want to steal it without lifting a finger. Plus its none of your business how much somebody makes.

Ken Tuckunder should read some Adam Smith, FA Hayek, and Milton Friedman; instead of relying on Paul Krugman's simultaneous fellatio of John Maynard Keynes (who would have appreciated Krugman's knob slobbering) and Karl Marx (whose penchant for buggery is assumed).

He'll find the answers he seeks.

Conservatives want everyone to rise up. Liberals want to drag everyone down to a common level.

1. None of your or government's damn business. That's part of what freedom means!

2. Your Planning Paradigm is bogus. No planned economy has ever worked. Capitalism, where millions of individuals create and plan, delivers what people need and want vastly more effectively and efficiently.

3. None of your or government's damn business. That's part of what freedom means!

4. No. That's part of what freedom means!

As libs they just can't control their jealousies, or any other urges for that matter.

May find them, but never understand or acknowledge them.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

You're right. You can lead a primitive to water, but you can't make him think.

Most billionaires are liberal elites anyway.

Let them eat each other. 

I tend to find that the small business owners and middle class are the true base of the conservatives. (Ignoring the union drones)

Liberals clean up at both extremes of the spectrum.  The super rich and the entitlement crowd.
