Population has grown, industries have changed.
What exactly have "the rich" done to "take from the bottom"?
Let's say "the rich" would have done nothing.
Would Ford's Factories in Detroit still exist, churning out the same cars they built in the 60s, only employing more people doing so?
I don't think so. To keep "the bottom" employed at the same level as in the past, somebody had to create new industries and businesses. Why is it the responsibility of the 1% to somehow magically do that?
