They would be stagnating if not for the developments within the government. Where would Steve Jobs and Bill Gates be now if not for the development in internet and computer development in aerospace and the military?
The same place they were 10 years ago or so, I suppose.
Let's not confuse issues here - the accusation is that the rich are stagnant. Clearly, they're not.
Besides, how far would any of the have gotten if they hadn't "given" jobs to people they employ. Jobs are not gifts. They are created out of business needs by mutual agreement between employer and employees
Absolutely. More reason to appreciate, rather than attack, the rich.
