Look Out!

Do you get up everyday like most in the world and do your best to provide? Some of us provide for ourselves, some for others. Some provide more than others. Fault or no fault that happens.
We, 'the kids', were taught that hard work, honesty and sharing led to success. That there was an American dream that was attainable by all. Well I still believe in the hard work, honesty and sharing but the American Dream is just that a Dream. It's fostered by the 'Gots'.
Since the development of the yeoman farmer to the stratified economic society of today the rich have allowed other rich to administer funds in needed proportions to the lower stations to maintain a certain amount of stable tranquility. These include the Welfare State that they so loudly bemoan. But they know that without it, and less obvious methods of distribution to less needy, those below would take more than they were being allowed to have.

“The top 1 percent of American families, for example, now own as much as the bottom 95 percent combined, the highest such gap among developed nations.” Money.CNN.com

Folks that just ain’t right. Are you OK with being a part of the 95% combined? Somehow the rules to the game have been corrupted.
There are people, people not nations, that count their worth by Billions of Dollars! Warren Buffet is worth over 62 billion and Bill Gates 58. Why is there a financial crisis? Because too few own too much!
This is the stuff that really riles my leftist instincts. I consider a good month as one where my bills are paid and nothing major is broken that will call for large funds to repair.
It's a crime! not a right to own that much money with hungry children on this planet. I'm very fearful that in my lifetime I'll see the 'Ain't Gots' rise up and take from the 'Gots'. It won't be pretty!
Right now there are still plenty of us 'Gots Just Enough's' to buffer the situation. I keep watchin the news though and 'just enough' can disappear in a heartbeat.
No Zipidee this time ;~(
