Well I may be a good narcissist I doubt I'm a victim.

As for the definition of fair, I believe it was Star Trek The wrath of Khan that said the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few are the one. There are many factors more poor people than ultra wealthy people in this country.

Teddy Roosevelt Republican ideals of a square shake for the laborer and the capitalist for a functional economy seems to have gone by the wayside in the past century.



You know why this is a Constitutional Republic and not a democracy? Because the founders understood that the “needs of the many” would become the envy or the whims of the many, and they’d become tyrannical against the few.

The poor people in this country are fat. If/when that changes maybe there can be discussion about the needs of the many.
