I like TuPac's idea. Which was to switch it up ever year. The poor trade places with the wealthy.

Would not that be a learning experience for the rich. To really see what the regular people struggle with on a daily basis. It is so difficult today to be an entrepreneur unless you know people or already have the backing in a bank account. I was going to write a novel. But cannot afford the publishing. Ta

I think you're being very naive in assuming that capitalism encourages those virtues you speak of. You're ignoring the two things that capitalism has historically fostered: greed and exploitation! You need look no further than its early days in the industrial age and third world countries where exploitation and worker abuse is standard practice. I would like for you you to show me one place in the world where wealth does not corrupt everything around it!

@TheTomBich - Indeed, I guess I do look a little constipated, hey, it was my first video, so, I was trying to concentrate on the sound and such, reading the script, I probably should have just done it using my normal voice, I am certain it would be better, I'm a decent speaker. Meanwhile, I've spent more time volunteering and helping people than anyone I've ever met. So, you are completely out of line. Further, don't threaten me, the video stays, but your comment is about to get deleted.

You look like you're constipated. You need to spend some good time in the pooper. And I just went through most of your articles. TOTAL CRAP NO ONE CARES. YOU BETTER REMOVE THEM BEFORE I GET 100 PEOPLE TO REPORT THEM..I'm watching you son

@ummakhan1512 - That is quite a stretch - I hadn't mentioned Palestinians once in the video. I'd like to have your real name to put you on a watch list.

[ummakhan1512]

Your rant against Palestinians was hateful and sick. You're a bit full of yourself.

@frankmuddler - Sorry about that, this is the reason I have not posted anymore videos, I've written 21,000 online articles, and hope to someday turn them all into videos, unfortunately, I am going to have to upgrade my audio and visual equipment here to do that. Thanks for your patience, I was bothered myself when I noticed how bad it looks when the voice is off like that.

I'm disturbed by the gap between the movement of your mouth, and the sound of your voice.

Of course you can have solutions on a personal level: work hard and be a winner. But the overall landscape will always be the same: A HANDFUL OF WINNERS AND GADZILLION LOSERS. Like in the MLB, no matter how hard every single minor leaguer dedicate to train, the roster's seat will always be just 40.

Suppose you share 10 bucks with 10 guys: if one guy gets like 8 bucks and the next like 1, the rest will end up with few cents or nothing at all. Since money is not created (as I heard Rush Limbaugh saying) but transferred, the only way to attenuate the inequality here is limiting the amount per person. It's simple math. The average income in the US is U$50.000 something. If you have Buffetts and Gates getting the 8 bucks chunk (no matter how legitimately they're getting it) you know the result.
