In real terms, there is a greater disparity of earnings between the very rich and the very poor.

The gap between rich and poor under President Obama is getting bigger because fewer well-paying jobs are available. Corporations are being taxed to the hilt and are loathe to add more workers. Thus, salaries fall because there are more than enough applicants to fill any job vacancy.

My own experience in the third world was that even if people started to make more money, the cost of living and housing increased often faster than the wages.

Unfortunately, the weaker people are, the more they pay, and the stronger they are, the less they pay - when it comes to banking, commission and management fees, and in every area of our lives.

Poor people are those who only work to try to keep an expensive lifestyle and always want more and more.

In reality, most of America's poor work hard, often in two or more jobs.

Workers in decent jobs view the economy as unjust if they or their children have virtually no chance of climbing to a higher rung in the socioeconomic ladder.

Poorly paid labor is inefficient labor, the world over.

Basically, I think that most people either make too much money or not enough money. The jobs that are essential and important pay too little, and those that are essentially managerial pay far too much.
