I keep reading in the paper and hearing on the news: 'The middle class is disappearing...' Why are we only concerned about the middle class? Is it because the news is run by the middle class? Is it because most of the country fits into the middle class? What about the low class? If the middle class are becoming poorer then things must be completely miserable for the people living at the bottom. And isn't it outrageous that some poeple have hundreds of millions? I'm always called a communist (with bad connotations) when I advocate equality for all. Of course, in our economy, to sustain Democracy we need an open market and the ability to freely make as much as we want. I believe, however, that even the worst of people, who would let others die in the gutter while they over-feed themselves, would change their mind about our economy and system of government if they were forced out on the streets (no home, food, protection, medicine, etc.). I'm interested in your thoughts...
