Do the workers get a voice

You want to create Eden from money taken from "A" by giving it to "B." Lets see A has more than he needs..........B has nothing, let B work for A and A can give him some, then both will have some. Sounds like the plan already in existence except A wants to keep too large of a piece of the pie. I'm all for one earning his way, I just believe the separation between rich and poor is too extreme! This is the kind of society that turns into a Dictatorship, and was well on it's way under the Bush regime! Hopefully it will bounce back as the pendulum swings!

Well, "A" has every right to his money, Med. And to take from "A" involuntarily in order to give to "B" is what highway men do. The only difference is that "B" isn't going direct to "A" to rob him. Nope, "B" is using an agent called "The Federal Government."

Now then, if "B" wants to work for "A" and EARN the money "A" pays him, then I'm fine with that.

Thats what I'm saying, only A wants to keep too much of the pie, Hey I know that starting a business is risky and costly, and I'm all for the owner getting all his money back and making a profit, I just think that after a certain point A shoud share more with B, especially if B has helped him make his business a success. I never got to that stage in my businesses because I was always undercapitalized. Had I made a success story, I'm pretty sure I'd have shared the wealth with the top employees and even the new guys, I mean a little more than the next guy would pay for the same services. As long as the money was coming in, and I could put some away for that rain storm, I'd have no problem sharing! Of course this is all speculative, and I might have been the asshole of all assholes, but I doubt it. The employees I had were very loyal to me!

There is no "pie" Med. Wealth is ever expanding. There is enough for everyone that wants to get it.

Thats against every precept of economics, In economics there is always a pie. Your theory is more like a feeding trough where the greediest pigs get all the goodies!

Geeze, Med ... you are fucking lost, my man.

I'll agree to this point: There IS a wealth pie ... but it's an always expanding pie. Again, there is enough for everyone if they just do the right things to get it.
