    I mean, I guess they would be if they said nobody should be rich, but that has never been the argument.

    That’s a pretty wild accusation.

    I find it odd that you constantly stick up for the DNC establishment.

    They have said wealth should be severely limited, but we all know what they really mean.

    They haven’t really said that either.

    90% tax rates on all money over 10 million? Don't piss down my back and tell me it's a warm rain. If that isn't severely limiting wealth, nothing is.

    Her father's estate consisted of debts. Her mother was eventually allowed to sell her house.

    Also, you do realize that she isn't the one getting the $10MM, right?

    IOW, it was a short time.

    Who said she got $10MM?

    My point is her bartending is used to make her sound like she's working class when she's not.
