Alright, you got me. Allow me to fix my argument.

First, if you're trying to make intelligent arguments, leave out the references to communism. Communism was supposed to be a historical inevitability, not a system to be imposed on a nation. It would never "work in theory" because it's not a course of action. So I'll address Max and Helm who were nice enough not to be asinine in their responses.

My point was that at least the wealthy have the ability to contribute to the national economy, and despite the opinions of SO many liberals, plenty of them do so.

The Bush family, given a tax break, would buy that yacht.

But a lot of new money investors would put their extra cash to good use. Much better use, I guarantee, than Joe Welfare would or could.

A better plan would be just to offer easier loans for investors at all levels.

I know part of the point is to just line more bulging Anglo pockets.

But it's not a completely idiotic plan economically speaking, because it might (realistically, not in theory) be effective to a point given the tendencies of the newly wealthy.

Wait. Why am I bothering? I'm not rich. Or poor. Or politically involved.

Fuck.

Just nevermind.
