[QUOTE="MorkandMindy, post: 75311966, member: 172332"] In the US money mostly travels up the economic spectrum and then out of the country. If I see a doctor I'm charged at 50 times my own pay rate, I'm almost on minimum wage, and the senior doctor who owns the clinic gets most of what I pay and the doctor or physician's assistant gets a lot less, but still about five times what I'm paid. And that applies pretty much across the board, our local car mechanic charges 400 dollars an hour, he doesn't say so, but he wanted 600 dollars to change a rocker box gasket, it was under the air intake manifold so in total would have taken close to an hour. And a nearby architect charged 100,000 dollars to design something not all that complicated and so on. And dentists and vets and opticians all charge a small fortune and the money goes from the poorly paid up to the top of the Middle Class. And the rich buy yachts and cars made in Europe [/QUOTE]
