Borodog,


pretty much agree with your post but I do think it matters greatly that the poor and middle class have the perception that the system is fair to them and that they have the possibility through hard work, good living and intelligence to accumulate more wealth and a better life. I think if it gets to the point where too large of a percentage lose that belief and stop "buying into" the system problems start to arise like the desire for socialism, or other unrest.

so in summary I think its some times necessary to take minor steps to slow the perception of uneven income distribution in order to insure the system as a whole.
