I grew up poor, started a business, and slowly built up wealth. This is the basic logic of America: you get rich by making things people want. If you solve problems for others or make things cheaper, you create riches. It is a simple, honest machine that works for anyone. The only way to break it is to let socialist or fascist central planners take over. When that has happened in the past, everyone became poor. The opportunity to help people and get rich is still there for the taking, at least as long as we defend freedom and choice.

Why don't people talk about this anymore?
