the mossy green<p>&gt;&gt; BRIAN (cont'd): ...But it isn't what happens - the rich accumulate more and more <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/wealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wealth</span></a>. It doesn't trickle down to anybody, it trickles up actually.</p><p>&gt; Q: <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/Labor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Labor</span></a> have obviously been very, very reluctant to speak about a wealth <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/tax" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tax</span></a> because they say that it might drive wealth creators or <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/business" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>business</span></a> people out of the country. Do you agree with that assessment?</p><p>&gt;&gt;</p>
the mossy green<p>&gt;&gt; BRIAN: It's obvious to me that there's a feedback loop involved in <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/wealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wealth</span></a>, which to say if you get a little bit <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/rich" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rich</span></a>, you are very likely to get richer. It works the other way 'round with <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/poverty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>poverty</span></a> - if you get poor, you’re very likely to get poorer, so those things are not self-correcting...it doesn't work. There's not the <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/TrickleDownTheory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrickleDownTheory</span></a> that people used to believe in...that it's good for people to get rich 'cuz that money gets dispersed among poorer people so it helps them.</p><p>&gt;&gt;</p>
the mossy green<p>&gt; Q: What's your message to....<a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/millionaires" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>millionaires</span></a> or <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/billionaires" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>billionaires</span></a>, you know, people like <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/ElonMusk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ElonMusk</span></a> who obviously don't think the same way you do and think that they should...be allowed to accumulate their <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/wealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wealth</span></a> into the billions and billions of pounds? What would your message be for those people?</p><p>&gt;&gt;</p>
