Everyone gets mad at me when I say propaganda. But just take a step back for one moment to consider the preposterousness of this wealth inequality meme. A San Franciscan has a cost of living index that is ten times higher than a resident of Flint Michigan for the same standard of living. Read that statement twice, then realize that the San Franciscan _must_ pay more than twice as much in taxes as a percentage of income just to afford the _same_ standard of living. The hypothetical San Franciscan working an identical job as the Michiganite will not be able to afford the same standard of living. In what world is this "equality"? This is the problem with drawing arbitrary numbers out of thin air and labeling one number "rich" and one number "poor". Granted, all things diminish on a relative scale in the extremes. A billionaire is rich in San Franciso or Flint Michigan. But how about a millionaire? Who gets to decide to draw the line between them, the citizens of Flint or the citizens of San Francisco! If you just said popular vote you fail. The problem is again with scale, you can't have millions of people voting on the fate of a minority. This is why a centralized Federal government will never be equitable or fair. The Federal must necessarily be subordinate to the State, and the State subordinate to the municipality.
