So you're saying that in this country the poorest have it better than any other country. And this is something to be proud of? That's exactly what I'm saying. Giving our fellow Americans a better quality of life than just dying in the street alone. That's something to be proud of. I'm saying we need to do more. And I'm not saying we need to eliminate the possibility of someone rising to the top through hard work and innovation. Just that the baseline needs to come up.

There should be a cap on wealth that would only be raised if everyone in the country had a secure nutrition, housing, education, and healthcare. Once we all have that then individuals can earn as much as they want.
