Why don’t abused women just leave their partners? Why don’t poor people just spend less?

Good questions.

‘Inequality has become a challenge to us as moral beings’

No, it hasn't. What lefties refuse to understand is that "income inequality" is a product of a system with great economic mobility and high economic opportunity.

This article reads like the companion piece to Kristof’s sob story demanding ‘empathy’ for complete strangers from complete strangers.

As with social justice, when lefties talk about empathy they merely mean cold hard cash - yours but never theirs, of course.

because every poor person must have a I phone. I am poor and because of that I choose not to have a cell phone.it is more important that the 25 dollars I would of spent on a cell phone is spent else where. A couple of times in my life I have had to go to a food pantry because of being poor the biggest thing that made a impression on me is how many people there had IPhone and other expensive items. I personally believe that most those living in poverty are there not because they are poor because you can be poor and not live in poverty. they are there because they chosen poorly in there financial decisions.

Oh, but maybe they do! Because they sure are trying to eliminate those two features of our society.
