I just found the website listed below. It is really suprising to me the facts that I have learned. Can I get your first impressions on the facts and numbers below.

In the United States, wealth is highly concentrated in a relatively few hands. As of 2001, the top 1% of households (the upper class) owned 33.4% of all privately held wealth, and the next 19% (the managerial, professional, and small business stratum) had 51%, which means that just 20% of the people owned a remarkable 84%, leaving only 16% of the wealth for the bottom 80% (wage and salary workers). Basically the rich are getting richer. My question is...

(Facts from http://sociology.ucsc.edu/whorulesamerica/power/wealth.html)

1) Do you feel that this is just the American way or does the bottom 80% need to rise up and take back a portion of the wealth.
2) Who's fault is it?
3) If we did rise up...what do we need to do? Demand higher pay? Demand better benefits?

Our upstairs toilet has started producing noisy vibrations in the water lines when we flush it.This only happens on this toilet,all the other cold water supplies to taps etc are fine.This noisy vibration can be stopped if we turn on the bathroom cold tap.
Could it be that we need a new syphon in the cistern.?

As if hamas is the cause of the Middle East tragedy!

Who came first, hamas or Israel?
Hamas is twenty years old and Israel occupying Palestine since 59 years?

Israel is torturing the Palestinians since 1948 and hamas first “Qassam rocket” was lunched in Oct 26, 2001.
