The class system in America has gotten to be too separated and unequal in the past 30 years. The poor and the middle class have stayed the same, while the rich has seen their wealth increase many times over. This is an unfair, unjust way for normal Americans to live. People are working longer hours than ever before. The economy continues to increase, and profits for big business are at their best ever. But what does the working man get? Nothing. The middle class hasn’t seen a real increase in salary since the early 80s. The people who are allowing these companies to have
record profits are not seeing any reward for their hard work. The top 1% in this country controls more wealth than the bottom 50%. This is a ridiculous way for America, the richest country in the history of the world, to behave. People are occupying Wall Street and many other cities in this country to protest against the destruction of the working class in this country. The classes are becoming too distant from each other. The middle class doesn’t realize the struggles of the poor, and the rich don’t see the struggles of the middle class. If we want to continue this country moving progressively into the future, and not turn into a third world country with major economic inequalities, something has to change.
