A. Your question defines what is wrong with Americans. hurry up, you in my way, honk the horn, the drive thru is backed up. Get rich quick plans don't work! My grandparents worked their whole lives living on less than they made, not borrowing money but paying cash after saving up for things they needed not wanted and retired with dignity. So If you wife won't work you need a second job and turn off the cable and other thing you don't need.

Asked by cwaller1983 - Wed Apr 29 02:50:02 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Wealth is the overall measure of how "rich" a person is. Income is how much a person earns. Therefore, distribution of wealth refers to the distribution that benefits everyone because it divides everything equally. Distribution of income is great too but it leaves more for some because in this type of distribution, only 1 part of wealth is divided (income). In short, Distribution of Wealth=everything Distribution of Income=part

A. Real wealth is goods and services that people use to fulfill their needs and wants. And no single country can produce efficiently and effectively everything its people need and want. That's why international trade and commerce plays such an important role in making people and countries wealthy. And that's why trade barriers will likely bring more poverty rather than more wealth. Trade barriers increased poverty in 1930's. And there is no good reason to think that doing the same thing now will somehow bring about a better result.

A. In short, when using socialism as a term, one will have to be very skeptical. The definition of socialism differs a lot from say, the US, to the Scandinavian countries, to China. Whereas in the Scandinavian countries, socialism isn't as much a frightening word as in the US, for example. Having no government is called anarchy, and is not good for no one. Having no wealth redistribution is more or less monarchy, with a king and an elite at the top, who keeps all the goods for themselves. Have you heard of the french revolution?

Q. Don't we redistribute wealth every fiscal year for our state and federal budgets? Is the goverment spending money on military or on school a socialist concept then? Isn't that capitalism and democracy? I don't believe in socialism and communism but at the same time people say that presidents like Obama and precedessors always proposed socialist ideas, how?! Seperating us by tax brackets is a form of wealth redistribution! I like how its mentioned that we're also not a democracy, and that technically we're a republic cuz the few people tell the rest of the country what to do.

A. In short, when using socialism as a term, one will have to be very skeptical. The definition of socialism differs a lot from say, the US, to the Scandinavian countries, to China.

McCain supporters: Who was the last president that did not redistribute the wealth?
Q. Why is it that McCain and Palin keep bringing up redistribution of the wealth, when he is not using a flat tax system? They say that doing so is being a socialist. Yet they are planning to do it themselves. Isn't that being just a tad hypocritical on their part?
Asked by Cryst - Thu Oct 23 19:05:19 2008 - - 11 Answers - 0 Comments
A. If you have ever paid taxes, you paid for social security, medicare, medicaid, welfare, government employees, local, city and state employees, the list goes on. They have taken this socialist thing and run with it, not knowing what the hell they are talking about.

How to activate wealth area in Fengshui?
Q. Hi, I would like to know where my wealth area is in my bedroom and living room? Is there a method or some kind of reference to help "calculate" that? After knowing where my wealth area is, how should I "activate" it? Thank you in advance for your help!

A. This is more complicated that you can imagine and to date I have not found any website that explains the system well enough. One of the first things I can advise is that a wealth area for a bedroom is not recommended as it creates conflict with other needs and requirements and therefre becomes almost impossible to create. A main room is a good place and the basics are 1.To avoid situating the wealth area along the walls adjioning the entry doorway. 2. Do not use the walls that allow light in but utilise those that the sun shines on to. 3. Keep the area clutter free. 4. Use neutral and natural colours 5. Keep electrical useage within the area to a minimum. 6 . Ensure that the finish does not degrade the feel of all other areas or all will… [cont.]

How do you feel about it being old fashion to earn and keep wealth?
Q. Clearly redistributing the wealth is an attack of the successes of people. In this new administration the small businesses that is the back bone of our economy will be challenged to compete with big business. How many in the $70-150K income level really feel they are rich and deserve to be taxed harder?

A. We are close or in that category, barely making ends meet. Our property taxes doubled this year. We don't live a life of luxury. I can't afford a safe vehicle to drive, and my daughter will be going off to college next year...Times are hard, I hope they don't get worse. (((BIG HUG)))
