Freedom from Want; Freedom from Fear.

[baldguy]

Republicans know nothing of the meaning of Freedom.

1. Republicans don't know the meaning of fear

They think they do, but they have never truly been afraid in their lives. That will all change, if they keep pushing us down the path toward revolution though.

2. I wish that was also broken down into number of people, and

income.

Percentages don't sink in as well -- in my mind anyway. :)

4. 311 million people in the US at last count

40 x 311 = 124,400,000 people own .2% of the wealth

1 x 311 = 3,110,000 people own 38.1% of the wealth

We will assume the total wealth in this country is $60 trillion

.2 x 60 = $120,000,000

38.1 x 60 = $22,860,000,000

These numbers help

6. Thanks for doing the math for me -- it DOES help! nt

5. Yeah, it needs to have circles for amount of money and under the circles, the number of people who..

...own that much.

3. a simple axiom

Freedom is not simply the absence of government. Or, to put it another way, less government does not necessarily equal more freedom.

Just ask any black person who lived in the south before civil rights legislation. Or any child laborer.
