Classic ignorance of how economics works, assuming it's a zero-sum game; as if you can only be rich at the expense of someone else.

Fiat money printed with debt is not wealth. Its just a bubble, that will eventually burst, and the ones holding the money will lose almost everything. The ones that printed it, already bought real wealth with it, and they will be safe. That's the scam.

Classic pseudo-economics

Pick up Piketty's Capital in the 21st Century or Stiglitz's Freefall if you're so confident how economics works.

Or you could say that Trumps cabinet is the first to be made of successful businessmen in the history of your nation.

But divide that money between all 98,817 schools in the united states and each one gets a little over $140,000 which would make our entire population more capable for years to come.

Us spends more than any other country in the world per student. The system is broken, not starved for cash.

You could have the fanciest most modern school imaginable, but it still can't make some kids learn. Some people will piss away every opportunity given to them then blame everyone that tried to help them.

Education gets more money every year in America and the population is getting dumber over time. China does better in education and they spend less on education than we do with a much larger population. You can dump money into a dumpster fire all day but you aren't going to put the fire out. The education system must be scrapped and reworked from the ground up. First step is getting rid of the dept of education and let the states and communities decide what to teach. You know like we did when education in America was at its best.

are you going to divide your money to 98,817 schools when you reach a threshold of money? or maybe when democrats feel like you're the richest? lets not forget we are all supposed to be citizens, regardless if we chose you for president or DC janitor, you still have every right the average person should have.

Money, like any other resource, will naturally tend to accumulate with smartest and most ambitious individuals in nearly any given scenario, regardless of their morality.

The smartest hunters got the most game.
The smartest farmers had the largest harvests.

The smartest and most ambitious Europeans colonized the new world, which eventually became the richest and most powerful country the world has seen thus far.

When this is not happening there is some outside factor subverting the natural order. While it is understandable that those who are of lesser intelligence might resent their betters, they really cannot be trusted with the stewardship of any serious wealth or power. Lower capacity people are unable to defer gratification and instead choose to eat their seed crop, leading to starvation in the long winter. That is unless they manage to steal the resources from someone else. (thus explaining the "unwashed mob's" propensity for violence)

An advanced society is not possible if only the poorest, dumbest, and ill fortuned individuals are chosen to head its government.

Grünt looks at the 30 previous harvests, his personal chest full of the meat and harvest of the 10 previous years.
One of his wives Groontilda asks him why he keeps so many rotten meat, veggies and cereals in here and complains about the smell. "any resource," he answers, "will naturally tend to accumulate with smartest and most ambitious individuals in nearly any given scenario, regardless of their morality, so plug your nose and suck my dick."

if he was actually smart with his resources he'd have sold the meat for more wives before it went bad

She's rich too though. If she wants to talk about taking money from rich people then she should start with herself.
