Since there will ALWAYS be some people with nothing... as a society becomes richer... isn't it inevitable that the gap between the rich and poor will grow?
Yeah - I agree. Just because the gap is growing is not a bad thing. It just means that wealth in America is growing.
Living in Mississippi, I have seen a great explosion of wealth in parts of the state (while living other poverty stricken areas in the dust).
Increased wealth in America is a good thing. And conservatives more than liberals are likely to be advantaged by this.
