Lots of good ideas? Yes, if you're totally clueless about


economics or how the real world works, I suppose those might seem like great ideas.

Let's see, we're going to redistribute TRILLIONS of dollars from shareholders (i.e. owners) of companies and you don't think that might possibly reduce the investment needed to create those companies in the first place? Do you think companies just magically appear to employ thousands, tens of thousand or even hundreds of thousands of employees, or does it take capital and investors willing to risk capital to invest in, create and grow those companies. And are those investors going to be willing to risk their capital if someone like Elizabeth Warren is going to redistribute it to the middle class (without it costing a thing I might add). It's pure nonsense. I suspect Elizabeth Warren is smart enough to know this, but also knows there are legions of morons in this country who will buy this plan.

And create more meaningful career ladders for employees? Where does she think today's corporate leaders came from? Companies invest tons of money to attract, retain and develop the best employees.

And yeah, let's let employees help decide big strategic decisions for companies. What could possibly go wrong letting Bill from order processing help decide big strategic decisions.
