As an economic capitalist and and a political conservative, I know one thing for sure:  As business owners, we do not share wealth … we CREATE it!  We take a lump of material worth 50 cents or an idea worth even less, add some sweat and ingenuity, and create a product that sells for $4.50 or more.  That’s capitalism at its best. 
 
Bottom line (and worth repeating):  We don’t need to share wealth.  We create it:  We create jobs. We create opportunities.  We create a life of comfort and security for millions of men and women in this country. 
 
All we ask are two things:  (1) that the government and other confiscators and regulators leave us alone, so that we can do what we do best; and (2) that the people to whom we give our money (employees and suppliers) are willing to work hard to earn it and give us value in return. 
 
Work hard.  Make money. Have fun.  And create wealth! — JRI
