Profits.

They are both necessary, and sufficient as a motivation for
both the common man, and the wealthy individual.

Especially for productive. When the useless, unskilled business owner steal
all the profits made by productive the motivation of the productive
decrease. As much of the output goes to the business owner and as less to
the productive workers as much the motivation decrease. There it is going
to be a breaking point where the capitalism can be at least as bad as
socialism.

I find quite disturbing to find in all these newsgroups people incapable
to think about a balance solution. A solution in the middle.

Sorry. Doesn't work that way.

Unfortunate, you seems to be right. We allowed too much power to be
concentrated into the hands of idiots with money and no skills.
This have to change.

Do we really live into a world where the last drop of decency and brain
has been lost ?

Yes.

Then it is time to recover it back.


In the United States, wealth is highly concentrated in a relatively few
hands.

Talk about brains. Use yours, for once, will ya please?

The smartest folks usually get the best grades.
The fastest folks usually win the race.
The strongest folks usually win the weight lifting competition.
The most popular folks usually win the election.
The most qualified folks usually get the job.
The best salesmen usually close the deal.

The number of dropouts into the top 100 wealthy is over 5 times as the
number of PhDs.

Also, a study found that there is NO corellation between success in business
and intelligence:

And while the cases of death by overwork (Karoshi) has been reported at the
worker up to small manager level, I never heard of a rich shareholder to
die by overwork.

What's so hard to understand about the statement: The folks that
are good at making money and putting it to good use, these folks
usually accumulate the most wealth?

So, good at making money it is something not related with any of:
- education
- intelligence
- hard work

Our society prosper due to the hardwork of intelligent and educated people.

There is no link between what is useful for the society and the accumulation
of wealth by the business persons. However, concentration of wealth into
the hands of unskilled business persons create an artificial scarcity
preventing the productive to work in their(and society)best interest,
economically coercing them to waste their effort, talent and skills to make
rich a greedy guy already richer than them.

Sorry, but it's a natural law.

Not at all. You have no clue about natural laws.
In nature, you will not see a lion defending the property of other lion
while he have nothing. The ability to own more than what a person can carry
and defend all by itself it is a society construct.

And here we go, exactly the pathetic idiots right wingers that benefit the
most from the existence of the society are exactly the same that complain
about fairly contributing to it and doing the best to have it destroy.
The right wingers stupidity it is not matched by anything else but their
greed and hypocrisy.


I lump you with the same sort of non-thinking, "let's all be
friends", "competition is evil" sort of folks that want all
students to get straight A's (not through effort, but by a
twisting of the grading process) and folks who want to
eliminate competition (My nephew played an entire soccer
season where they didn't keep score and nobody won a game.
Yeah. Right.) and the folks who want to give some class of
individual special priveleges on getting the job -- be it
for race or any other special priveleges you care to name.


No. What you make with your OWN skills and work rightfully belong to you.

The problem is that there is no wealthy on the planed that earned it with
their skills and abilities. They always found ways to coerce others to work
for them and steal their products.

The fact of the matter is: Some folks are better at making
money and accumulating wealth. The vast fortunes you mention
below are evidence of such and you're just jealous.

Bank robbers are also very good at making money. The fact that we enforce
the law and jail them it is nothing else but jealousy in your right winger
mind !!!


There you have it. You've proved the point. The folks who
are good at making money accumulate the wealth. That's some
sort of logical tautology that oughta be self-evident (but
apparantly not).

Now you want to take their wealth?

No, just to prevent them to steal it from the productive.
