Never has the old adage been clearer...

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Even during a pandemic...

The past three months have been financially painful for many Americans -- but not for billionaires.

Funny thing is, if I am not mistaken, you have repeatedly used the same phenomenon during the Obama Administration as "evidence" of his economic policy "success." If it weren't for double standards, you'd have no standards at all.

Well, of course, you are mistaken.

That’s a way of life with you.

So you have never once touted the stock market's performance as evidence of Obama's economic success? I believe you, in fact, have, on numerous occasions - and you are trying to have it both ways. That's a way of life with you.

This has nothing to do with stock market performance under Obama, much less my supposed reaction to the same.

The topic of this thread is billionaires getting dramatically richer during the pandemic as ordinary folks take it on the chin.

It’s pointless trying to get you to focus on topics, but I like to give it the old college try.

Of course. Did you really think when the blue state governors strangled their economies and plunged their residents into poverty and misery, they weren't doing so at the behest of their billionaire overlords?
