People like you and me are never, repeat NEVER, going to join the ranks of the rich, because the game is rigged against people like you and me. But the moneyed class like to perpetuate the illusion that we are all just a few lucky breaks away from becoming independently wealthy to create voter sympathy for massive tax cuts for people earning more than a bazillion a year — because, ‘Hey, I could one day be one of those people making more than a bazillion a year and then that tax cut is gonna come in handy.’ And the moon is made of green cheese. Why do we keep falling for this?
