Well Walter it looks like I have some research to do ... I do also recall Ron Paul saying that only 1/3 of the Govnt's income comes from tax receipts ... It seems what you are implying is that the USA is run by a corporation.

Oh, and PS: Out of that 110 trillion, about half is now invested outside of the USA and outside of the US Dollar valued in other currencies, so government has diversified over the last several decades and my are they making a killing on their "NON US DOLLAR" holdings.

7. And always remember; the media and education system does an excellent job of doing exactly what they are supposed to do due to the money involved. Not a peep or word of comprehension. Vacuum created, business as usual continues (the structured takeover started in 1946)

4. Local and Federal government is currently bringing in more gross income than the entire population, with 1/3rd of the gross being from tax income, 2/3rds being from return on investments and enterprise operations.
5. It could be worse Comrade Mclnerney.
6. You now know why Gorbechev went democratic years ago. More control, more wealth. We wrote the better blueprint for effective communism.

Tod:
Now to look behind the door and see the other side of the coin:
1. Gross income for local and federal government for 2007 was about 11.2 trillion dollars.
2. Composite "liquid" investment capital for all government as of 2007 was standing at about 110 trillion dollars.
3. If government was a "public" corporation and every man, woman, and child was an equal shareholder, the value of each shareholder's holdings would be approximately $350,000 each, or a family of five; $1,750,000

Paula- Regarding the income disparity, many on the right say that stock owners can participate in the profits of a company. Perhaps this can be greatly expanded and made easier for everyone. One of the presidential candidates suggested giving a person born here a 5000 dollar retirement investment like a type of social security.they said it would be worth a million upon retirement .Perhaps we can pick up ideas from Scandanavia.The best-- Mark Rogers --richlifenyc(dot)com

hey Mark! I'm asking Scott Goldberg to ask Robert Ashford these detailed questions about how effective stock ownership really is when Professor Ashford comes to NYC for a big conference and he speaks about social economy. My major regret about not being able to bilocate as I'm accomplishing so much w/family here in Berkeley
