The primary driver of wealth inequality isn't income, but asset ownership. Government money printing to cover deficit spending inflates asset prices. This forces those who understand finance to buy assets, which then appreciate, widening the gap between them and those who don't own assets.

When inflation outpaces interest rates, it's not a market accident but a calculated government policy. This gap functions as an invisible tax that steals purchasing power from anyone holding cash. This wealth transfer from the populace to the government occurs without legislation, tax forms, or public consent.

When governments print money to cover deficits, they devalue currency, effectively imposing a hidden tax on citizens. The only protection is owning assets like stocks, real estate, or businesses whose value rises with inflation. Since 90% of Americans lack significant assets, they are most exposed to this wealth erosion.

The current US economic system isn't true capitalism. Through inflation and central banking, wealth is systematically siphoned from the middle and working classes and funneled to asset holders. This mechanism is a political creation, not an inherent feature of free markets.

Deficit spending acts as a hidden tax via inflation. This tax disproportionately harms those without assets while benefiting the small percentage of the population owning assets like stocks and real estate. Therefore, supporting deficit spending is an active choice to make the rich richer and the poor poorer.

Excessive debt forces governments to print money, which inflates asset prices. This process mechanically enriches the asset-owning class while devaluing currency for wage earners, hollowing out the middle class into either the wealthy or the poor.

To fund deficits, the government prints money, causing inflation that devalues cash and wages. This acts as a hidden tax on the poor and middle class. Meanwhile, the wealthy, who own assets like stocks and real estate that appreciate with inflation, are protected and see their wealth grow, widening the economic divide.

Printing money doesn't create value; it inflates the price of finite assets like stocks and real estate. Those who own these non-inflatable assets see their net worth skyrocket, while those holding cash or earning wages are robbed of purchasing power, creating a widening wealth gap.

The core problem for the middle class is a direct chain reaction: national debt leads to money printing (inflation), which forces people to own assets to preserve wealth. Since only 10% of Americans own 93% of assets, the rest are left behind with devalued cash and stagnant wages.
