The Millionaires Are Back

from the just-took-a-temporary-break dept

Well it appears the super rich have bounced back from the economic bubble bursting of the last few years. While 2002 was a forgettable year for millionaires, by the end of 2003, the millionaires were back. We welcomed in plenty of new millionaires in the US and Asia, while Europe lagged behind - which isn't that surprising, given their tax policies.

    There is something good for the general good in having lots of milionaires? Somehow I doubt it.

      Yes, as a matter of fact there is a benny to having more millionaires. More illegal immigrants can be imported to work for slave labor for these people so Hillary & Bill don't have to pay as much of their weath out for menial services like someone to clean their toilets.

        So Republican economic policy creates a few millionaires at the expense of millions of jobs, and the conservatives still find a way to bash the Clintons for it.

        Hey, kids, are you better off now than you were four years ago?
