Ebbie:

Why you did stop at the first 10? Was that what it took to prove your point?

The combined wealth of the Democrats is 152.2 billion.

The combined wealth of the Republicans is 138.8 billion.

The obvious point is that more of the wealth held by the top 10 richest people is held by Democrats.

You still don't have the guts to answer the question because it would violate tribal politics.

Other than that, you are a breath of fresh air.

For another inkling about evil rich people, who is worth what in congress.

1. $290.5 million: Rep. Michael McCall (R-TX)
2. $198.8 million: Sen. John Kerry (D-MA)
3. $140.6 million: Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA)
4. $91.1 million: Rep. Jared Polis (D-CO)
5. $85.9 million: Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA)
6. $83.1 million: Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-WV)
7. $80.1 million: Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT)
8. $56.9 million: Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ)
9. $47.2 million: Sen. Diane Feinstein (D-CA)
10. $36.7 million: Rep. Jim Renacci (R-OH)

Democrats 643.1 million
Republicans 467.7 million
