In corporations, it’s owner-take-all - The Washington Post
Kinda scary, but since most of my income comes from investments, I'm cool with it.

Nice of you to say so, but I'm from Oklahoma. I only visit Paris for business and holidays.Of course you are, you're a parasite.

haven't all great civilizations of the past faced this same thing? an imbalance of wealth?
When an organization becomes top heavy...it topples. When a society/civilization becomes top heavy...?
I think Mr. Samuelson's point is that if we do something about the excessive imbalance now, maybe we won't have to rebuild our civilisation from the ashes and wreckage.haven't all great civilizations of the past faced this same thing? an imbalance of wealth?

Not that I care. I got no kids. If the thing holds together another 40 years, max, it can all come apart the day I die for all I care.

If you ever used a dishonest scum bag, you'd have kids now.At least you're honest.
A scum bag, but an honest scum bag.
If you ever used a dishonest scum bag, you'd have kids now.
I'd be happy to entertain reasons why I should care, if you have any.
Besides ones that boil down to because you do. Or claim to.
You take care of your kids, I'll take care of mine.I have two kids, hope they have a good life.
That's all I care about.
If someone says "I don't care what happens after I die because I have no kids"....that's a problem for me.
You take care of your kids, I'll take care of mine.
Admittedly, my job's easier.
And fairly quickly. Money don't count. Money in circulation is what makes an economy strong. Show me a country where 95% of the wealth is in the hands of 5% of the people, and I'll show you a stagnant economy with no innovation, no enterprise, and no future.So basically big finance have found a way to create more profit at the cost of the whole (the country in general)
Health of a country is in the buying power of it's people , not how much profit a corporation makes.
This will bite everyone in the as$ eventually.

I always had in mind that money should be compared to water. Like you say , when wealth will be all accumulated in one area it will have no value.And fairly quickly. Money don't count.
