And why the 1% gets wealthier and the middle class is becoming extinct. Incomes for the wealthy class have been rising, for the middle class going down. Yet we still play the game and think we can win. Heck people gamble at casino's and river boats knowing that the game is rigged. Most know it is for entertainment and it is going to cost them. But it is surprising how many talk about their "winnings" yet fail to use the other side of the ledger and subtract their previous and future "loosings". Humans are a strange species of animal. We have the ability to think and use logic, and yet so few actually bother to use either to any degree. John |
