My only concern is the poor have access to decent health care and food, they basically get both now.

At this point, maybe healthy poor people need to work harder... or work period.

Rich people don't create jobs. If you want everyone to work, make sure there are jobs to begin with.

The problem is it's like a lottery: most people don't argue with it because they think they have a chance of winning.

Tons of jobs exist for people with skills. More skilled people, more jobs taken.

I agree and developing skills should be rewarded, but isn't $200k/$300k tops enough? Are there skills that justify more than that? A lot of extremely highly educated people in the scientific world make $70k/$80k max. Even a lot of astronauts make less than $100k a year.
