[quote=abell]Congress has no money to spend. It’s our money, given for the good of society (at least that’s idea). Tax cuts haven’t cost Congress $300 billion per year, Congress has just been taking less of our money so they have less of it to spend.[/quote]

Has this been beneficial to society as a whole, though? Is it more important that the top 2% control most of the wealth or would the 98% at the bottom be better off with some modest wealth redistribution?
