The Us Presidential Original Too Shape Warfare

Will Barratt, Ph.D.

Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 lot of the 2016 U.S.A. Presidential get rhetoric is nearly coin as well as the inequitable distribution of wealth as well as income.  This is all practiced as well as needs to travel portion of the conversation.  However, the rhetoric seems to travel designed to brand the people inwards the electorate aggressively dislike wealthy people as well as observe them morally reprehensible.  Anyone amongst coin becomes suspect.

One candidate, Donald Trump, is really wealthy.  Interestingly enough, no ane actually knows how wealthy he is as well as most reputable sources look to believe he is worth around $4,000,000,000.

One candidate, Senator Clinton, has a net worth of over $30,000,000, as well as her married adult man has an additional $80,000,000.  Certainly non inwards Trump's bracket, but she is sure as shooting inwards the 1% for income as well as wealth.

One candidate, Senator Sanders, has a net worth of around $500,000 - $700,000 depending on the source. Senator Sanders is certainly wealthier than most U.S.A. adults as well as is sure as shooting poorer than Senator Clinton or Donald Trump.

Note delight that wealth as well as riches are relative.  But over a sure threshold rich is rich.  Entry into the 1% income is nearly $400,000 annually (the dollar total for income varies yesteryear source, but this is soundless a lot of annual income).  Having $11,000,000 inwards wealth volition generate nearly $400,000 inwards annual income spell preserving the wealth.  (3.5% is a fiscally conservative ROI)

Senator Sanders has made a virtue out of existence non wealthy.  Senator Sanders depression speaking fee, good below marketplace value, is perceived every bit a practiced thing, spell Senator Clinton's marketplace value speaking fee is seen every bit morally reprehensible.  On the other manus the Clinton's direct maintain a Foundation that both raises as well as gives away coin as well as Senator Sanders donates to charity.

Note the furor nearly the $3,000,000 marriage ceremony as well as $10,000,000 floor costs for President as well as Senator Clinton's daughter.  On the ane hand, that coin is circulating inwards the economy.  On the other hand, mayhap they should direct maintain been restrained inwards their spending.  On the tertiary manus average marriage ceremony expenses inwards the US, $26,444, total to roughly one-half of annual menage unit of measurement income of $52,000.  On the tertiary manus Chelsea Clinton's comment that she doesn't attention nearly coin has emotional impact for some people because some people attention a lot nearly money.  This is complicated.

Donald Trump is to immigrants every bit Senator Sanders is to wealthy people.  Manufacturing a mutual enemy is a fourth dimension honored political tactic.  Blaming the enemy for the woes of the people is a fourth dimension honored political tactic.  "But", yous say, "the wealthy are actually the problem".  Senator Sanders' seat is that the wealthy should direct maintain their income taxed at a slightly higher grade than the electrical flow level, that the wealthy should pay proportionately for Social Security, as well as that the inheritance taxation should travel changed.  Not bad ideas at all.  Working that solution backward does non blame the wealthy for problems.  This higher taxation solution simply makes the wealthy pay a higher share.  The information indicates that taxation cuts to the wealthy direct maintain non met their intended destination of stimulating the economy.  These changes inwards personal taxation volition generate to a greater extent than income for the U.S.A. Government as well as volition hardly impact wealthy people at all.  All that blame, as well as exclusively a niggling change.

Corporate taxation policy is complicated, even as well as then this election bicycle has highlighted the dislike as well as distrust of wealth as well as that dislike as well as distrust has spilled into pop back upwardly for changing corporate taxation policy.  Corporations are non people (please read upwardly on Citizens United) but they are composed of people.  Workers, investors, managers, board members, all are the people who brand upwardly corporations.  Corporations don't direct maintain social class, or do they?

This 2016 U.S.A. Presidential election is nearly ethnicity, nationality, gender, as well as social class.  It is instantly acceptable to travel racist, nationalist, sexist, as well as classist because those running for portion demo these traits.
