Default Re: OT: US President (US Dom Players only)

I would say-in my economic innocence-that the best way to attack poverty (it seems to me) would be to, yes, more heavily tax the very rich, but while attacking inflation, itself. That would cause everyone's money to be worth more, while reducing the gap between the very rich and the very poor. It *should*, I would think, also cause prices to drop, since the money itself would have more value.
