But before they could spend they needed a job that was created by investment, either their's or somone else's . You seem to take for granted our current economic situation and standard of living. The very rich buy yachts, houses, luxury items that are produced by skilled craftsmen, etc...They also invest money in attempting to create more weatlh.
Don't be naive. Staff requirements are set by the amount of business a company does. If consumers are spending then they hire staff, if consumers are not, they lay off staff. Investment creates wealth, but automatically doesn't create a job like that. Supply-side economics (the trickle-down theory) has never worked as advertised. Most of the very rich live luxuriant lives on a small portion of their income and they just pile up the rest. Investment produces very few jobs. The middle class spend a much larger portion of their income and that is what keeps the economy rolling.
Don't be stubborn, Jobs, Wosniack invested their time and money in starting Apple computer, and later multi-millionaire Mike Markkula funded 250,000 during the incorporation. Apple computer now employs near 50,000 people. I think you refuse to give obvious credit where it is due.
Juries convict people charged by prosecutors and judges sentence those convicted. How is it that one man, Perry in this case, responsible for the murder of an inocent man by the state?
