Democrats naturally think about good government and reasonable policies.

We have to stop doing that. It is a disease.

I don't give a F how we assess those things. As far as I'm concerned, we can use the Forbes numbers. The important thing is that we have a completely unjustified, undeserved, immoral, unsustainable concentration of wealth. Either we claw that back through elections and laws or else there will eventually be an "Eat the Rich" revolution, and that could happen sooner than you think.
