What was once ours is now theirs.

The very rich say they worked hard to achieve their wealth. And don’t owe anything to the poor or middle class. But deserve a tax break for all the hard work. Perhaps so but the money they now posses use to be ours. We invested it in high risk ventures and lost it to the rich. So, it is really our money. Not the rich.

Only had we read the fine print. Only if we had not fallen for promises of getting rich ourselves. All hype. All baloney. Our pain. The rich’s gain. It’s as simple as that.

Advantage the Rich. Disadvantage the middle class. A middle class shrinking as we speak.

But as you can see, the wealth of America has changed hands. Wealth no longer in the hands of the middle class but in the pockets of the rich. Call it class warfare or whatever. None the less we have be taken to the cleaners by people who have better attorneys and accountants. People who know how to change the rules to their advantage.

So, it was just a high end crap shoot. They won. We lost.

Never the less, it all use to be our money. Money taken by the privatization of retirement. No longer do companies provide matching funds for the retired. It has all been turned over to investment bankers and their Wall Street con games.

Even our savings accounts have been compromised. Extremely low interest rates have driven our hard earned money out of the banks and into the hands of the ruthless fund managers. Money once ours. All done by changing the rules in Congress.

And as a result, Money now belonging to the hard working scheming money managers and fund bankers. Zip, pop, zing! Money taken by manipulating the laws and funneled into tight and secured bank accounts of the very rich. Money gone. Gone to Wall Street. Our hard earned cash. Now belonging to someone else in an offshore bank.

Let me repeat one more time. All this wealth and money once belonged to we the people. Now belongs to the the rich. Should we congratulate them on work well done? I don’t think so. We should tax the heck out of them. Why? Because it’s our money. Tax and spend. That’s the way we can win.
