OK. Whatever makes you happy. But I still hate political parties.

But you love causes, ideology...which is still the point, your comments are partisan, whether you admit to it or not.

My choice of the explicit set of 30 years and "decline" may have been poorly chosen (mea culpa). So it has gone up a net of 4000 per household in 30 years since 1985.
What did it do from 1955 to 1985? Let's have a point of reference for what expectations can or should be.
The point is, pick your years, etc. The rise in real income at the top has vastly outpaced the rise in the "middle" in the post-WW2, and especially post-Reagan economy.

/ps, that plot should immediately disqualify another Bush for ever running.

You look at that chart and say it went up only $4000 in 30 years. Do you not see the highs and lows? There are reasons for the highs as well as the lows.

Let's say I agree.

Which party or parties have supported policies that enable this {negative} globalization.

Both. Who signed NAFTA?

So the chicken preceded the egg, or did the egg precede the chicken? How did the customer get the money to spend? Either he earned it by working for a business or he earned it by operating a business. If he earned it by working, then the business had to be profitable in order for him to continue to earn. If he earned it by operating a business that earning power would depend on those same profits. When a customer buys something he reduces his wealth or buying power by the amount spent. If he spends it on something that makes money then he can recover that wealth and create even more. If you were to buy an investment security and sell it for more than you paid, then you would create wealth by acting as a business yourself. You aren't even close to understanding what I say. You are tied up in left wing rhetoric. So we'll leave it at that.

Things were laying eggs long before there were chickens and the free market existed long before there was capitalism. For thousands of years people traded goods and services and no wealth was generated. Customers (people that trade) can exist without businesses, businesses can not exist without customers. This is just the facts, there is not left or right.

When people trade, they are a business. Businesses don't have to be formalized corporations. Anything that generates a profit is a business.

Not all trade generates a profit, that was the main point, I guess you missed it. ...and no; two people trading are NOT two businesses.

And those trades that do not generate a profit are not business trades. So we disagree. Best of luck to you.
