Wealth inequality is a profound moral and economic issue this country must address.

with a financial collapse.

2. We will not address it.

We've addressed it once, kind of, when TR broke up the monopolies.

4. I notice Bernie used a conditional (while), so I agree with him.

"The richest two Americans cannot continue owning more wealth than the bottom 40% or our country while millions cannot afford the basics to live."

There may be problems with having the top two people have so much wealth, but inherent "inequality" isn't one of them. Get rid of the conditional; make it so those millions Bernie is talking about can have the basics to live (and more, to thrive). If the top two Americans are still the top two and still have billions after that, I don't consider it a concern, as long as they don't use their money to cause harm.

5. Gotta love the awesomely powerful framing our side always comes up with ...

"Wealth Inequality!"

So, not everyone has the same amount of money?

OUTRAGEOUS!

I mean, that's truly powerful stuff.

9. I'm reading that as a direct message to Sinema, Manchin and the Republicans.
