Or improve the economy in a non-"throw money at the 1% companies" manner?

They've made up ways to tax those, but so far they haven't started telling you how big they have to be. The thing that makes me green is that in Europe and Japan, places I wouldn't wanna go, at least let you have a decent nice little bitty place! Some of the European countries even encourage you to think small! If North American big shots would stop pimping mcmansions, and huge mortgages, and going in debt to have it all, we'd have a beep of a lot less homelessness in North America. But what really makes me shake my head is me, sitting here, the "Welfare Bum", with less than ninety dollars in the bank, and the money in hand to pay back the sixty dollar loan that I had to get from my brother when the butt on my pants died suddenly, am richer than a big percent of people who slave in drudgery to pay the taxes that I get some of. And over the years I've been the fall back person for emergency relief to various people who work the normal jobs and have the normal life. I tell my friends here in Canada who work thank you for those tax dollars. I tell them often, and I try to take as little of the dollars as I can.
