But they should beware of what they wish for. Because contrary to popular belief, big government has been accelerating the rise of the billionaire class that liberals despise most.
Government is not the enemy, it is the enabler of the power elite. By soaking capitalism in complex debt and regulation, it creates a system that only the richest tycoons and corporations are best equipped to navigate.
In the United States, the share of national wealth controlled by the richest one percent has roughly doubled to 35% since 1980, mainly at the expense of the upper middle classes; the poorest 50% never had much to lose, the bottom 25% have had negative net wealth for nearly two decades.
