HERE WE GO...….YET AGAIN
There are those who strongly, even vehemently contend that there is gross socioeconomic inequality in America. They strong assert that the remedy to such socioeconomic inequality is that income should be distributed on an equal basis. Some among such contingents go further to argue that there should be no rich people when there are poor to impoverished people. They contend that the rich are at fault for they perceive to be gross socioeconomic inequality. However, there are those who feel that there isn't gross socioeconomic inequality. They contend that everyone has an opportunity to either succeed or fail on THEIR terms. They maintain that those who are poor to impoverished excluding those who are challenged physically, emotionally, mentally, & psychologically have themselves & poor choices to blame. What is your synopsis on the socioeconomic situation in America?
