"No one will buy into that and you will end up with nothing."

You are incorrect.

Banks are withholding, the same banks that were bailed out. That's what's holding back growth in the economy.

In order to succeed, we need a strong middle class, without them we become a third world country.

The entrepreneur is not "fortunate" to have trucks using the roads; he has those trucks because he used his talents and worked his buns off to successfully build a business to where he needs those trucks.

He is paying for the maintenance and upkeep of the roads by paying road taxes. Therefore, he is most definitely paying for his use of those roads.

Warren's point is envy and class warfare. She is ridiculously trying to imply that the entrepreneur does not fully deserve the success his hard work has brought him because "society" has just as much to do with his success as he does. And therefore, in her polluted mind, the government should punish the entrepreneur by confiscating even more of his profits, in spite of the fact that he is already paying taxes at a progressively higher rate than most everyone else. This is Marxism 101.

You say you want manufacturing in the USA to be built on solid ground, but you and Warren want to inhibit and punish the very people who can make that happen, which means that you will be the one to ensure that your dream will never come true. You want what the entrepreneur can create and then you want to take control of his creation away from him. No one will buy into that and you will end up with nothing.
