What I see happening is that society is splitting into haves and have nots—with the gap widening.

There are plenty of “haves” to fill every restaurant and vacation resort.

Yep,

There was a golden time in the USA where if you were willing to work by the sweat of your brow you could support a family and put a little away. That was good for those who never had the opportunity or means to learn a trade or get a higher education which was the majority - including my Father. This age was at its peak after WWII till the early 70s. Now we are regressing back the way it always was... a small middle class, the wealthy few, and the working poor masses. And one wonders why so many fell for socialism/communism
