I am finding it more and more discouraging with the number of folks that are just willing to accept the world situation as it is and not willing to apply some creativity in rectifying wrongs or not willing to attempt to change the status quo because they refuse to take a position on what is right or what is wrong even though intuitively it must be obvious. It appears freedom trumps fairness all the time and it is interpreted as one sees fit to make a point.

Can we start with the simple premise that one percent of the people should not own ALL of the wealth?
