John McCain on “Keep Your Wealth” Tour – A mavericky move for a nation with negative savings
October 23, 2008 by William K. Wolfrum
The richest 1 percent of Americans own 40 percent of America’s wealth. In his continuing effort to show that he connects with common folks like Joe the Plumber, John McCain has a bold new strategy as he unveils his “Keep Your Wealth” Bus Tour in order to secure the votes of the upper 1 percent.
Wealth = “abundance of valuable material possessions or resource.”
John McCain is wealthy.
Americans overall have negative savings.
Joe Sixpack has no wealth to keep.
The “Keep Your Wealth” Tour – yet another bold, fresh, Mavericky idea from John McCain.

Obama should take the middle ground here. Somewhere between spreading and keeping. Call it a ‘trickle to the side’ economic platform, or a ‘squirt upward’ policy.
Some say (and by ‘some’ I mean no one and I’m just making this up as I go) that squirt up economics doesn’t squirt to the top of the economic spectrum. To that I say, a million points of squirt wets all ships.
