If nobody has a job, and there are no jobs to get, how will the government get the funds to support a 300 million person welfare state? The Soviets couldn’t do it and they owned everything from dirt to diamonds. The people with wealth will leave. They will not stay and have everything they have built up taken away. Atlas Shrugged will be a prophetic novel and a bestseller soon.................
As the old Soviet joke went, “We pretend to work and they pretend to pay us.”
