We are rapidly moving toward a nation of the super-rich, by the super-rich and for the super-rich
A nation will not survive morally or economically when so few have so much and so many have so little.
I am going to do my best to try to create a country in which children are not living in poverty, in which kids can go to college, in which old people have health care. Will I succeed?
