income inequality

A few weeks ago, the Census Bureau released the 2018 Income and Poverty in the United States report, but you probably didn’t see anything about it because it reported such positive results attributable to President Trump's economic policies. Instead the media focused on a meaningless measure of income "inequality."

There is really only one answer to The Business Roundtable “leaders” who have announced that they are expropriating their shareholders’ assets in the pursuit, not of profit, but to address imaginary social justice goals: Shareholders should go on strike, take their money to Galt’s Gulch and refuse to invest in companies that spend their money on anything other than wealth creation.

If government would stop dragging people down by their wallets, then those poor victims might just be able to pull themselves up by the boot straps.

According to the media, Pope Francis is increasingly driving a wedge between conservatives and the Catholic Church with his agenda, which mirrors liberals' calls to address income inequality and limit climate change.

From the fiscal to the familial, conservatives have the right answers. 

With Dems. needing to turn out their base in Nov. and women comprising a significant part of it, Obama's striving to keep the so-called War on Women meme alive with two new pay-based executive actions, the full details of which will be announced on Tues.

In a pre-emptive strike on Obama's own budget set to be released Tues., House Repubs. are releasing a report on Mon. as a prelude to their own version later this month. The GOP report is critical of the 50-year-old War on Poverty and proposes reforms to welfare and social programs.

Obama and House Speaker John Boehner will hold a closed-door meeting at 11:30 am at the White House Tuesday. A proposed immigration rewrite is high on the list of likely topics.

The Obamas truly think that because Barack is President, they can do whatever they want. They inconvenience Americans and spend taxpayer money without batting an eye – in the midst of the weakest recovery of the last 60 years. Why don't they dial back the extravagance, at least for awhile?

Obama is wrong that raising minimum wage will fix income inequality.

This president has created more poverty, more economic inequality, more economic dislocation, more crushing debt than any president in modern American history including Carter and Hoover.

The president readies his populist push despite personal affluence. Talk about hypocrisy! 

Although Obama often rails against income inequality in America, his policies have had little impact overall on poverty. A record 47 million Americans receive food stamps, about 13 million more than when he took office.

The fact that his policies won't help -- and might hurt -- is really irrelevant.
