I laugh at shyt like this, we Americans still live better than over 80% of the world. We are only 5% of world population but consume 25% of the worlds resources. To me its really chickens come home to roost, we can do it to rest of the world, but when it happens to Americans its wrong, shyt its capitalism at its finest, the American way.

We're too comfortable and saturated to really care
speak for urself
history tell us that the only way to initiate wealth redistribution in these kinds of situations is violent revolution. We all know that ain't possible anymore so there's no real way out. We sure as shyt can't vote our way out.
Let's start with supporting policies most Americans endorse instead of those the wealthy endorse.

Engineering nikkas, you would've read that shyt if I made it a calculus 3 equation
With that said, it's not actually that long. If I linked to the actual site which is like 43 pages, that' d be long.

80% of Americans owning 7% of the wealth is pretty disgusting. But, people are spending every red cent they have and then some. I would love the wages to be a lot more fair, but on the other side of the equation there is no reason why someone could not save $10,000 over a 5 year period.
Depends on how much money you have coming in.
If you're making 75k a year and can't manage to save a couple thousand, then yeah, you're probably wasting money or living beyond your means. But I can't blame somebody making 22k/yr and just barely scraping by for having a hard time saving $2000 a year.

22k is probably not a lot of money in NYC or San Francisco. But, a person who is single is not scraping by on 22k/yr.
quit trying to deflect, because you're not working enough. (

To add on, a lot of the money inherited, comes from unjust means; the deceit and oppression of others.

Who the hell says everyone needs to have the exact same amount of money? Its disgusting that people feel entitled to someone else's money when they've done absolutely NOTHING to earn it. We've tried this re-dsitribution of wealth thing and it failed miserably (Remember Soviet Russia?) People wont work hard if the lion share of their earnings will be usurped by the government. Once liberals start realizing this the sooner we can really start to solve the nation's problems.
The fact of the matter is an excessively large government is the WORST thing that can happen to any nation in regards to its ability to succeed. The only thing a government needs to provide its citizens is a secure environment and opportunity to succeed. The rest should be up to the individual.
