I know some of you probably hate Karl Marx. Mostly folks who have not read his works, and/or folks who have a very limited understanding of world history. He said that a society cannot sustain an ever-widening gap between the have's and the have-nots. When there is a substantial proportion of people who are struggling just to survive, and at the same time if the wealth of that society is concentrated into a small group of ultra-fortunate people (and particularly if the rich people have disdain for the less fortunate and withhold their resources from that group), then according to Mr. Marx, that society will fix the gap problem sooner or later. In France, this was called the French Revolution. In Russia it was the Bolshevik revolt. And the conditions for this are swelling in Amerika.

The poor folks outnumber the rich folks by a wide margin. But so far the poor folks have been fooled into supporting regimes like Dubya/Dick. This too shall pass.
