    Rich get richer and the rest get told a bullshit story how they are so called better off than 30 years ago. The rich really don't provide much of function to make society better -- ie Why does Bill Gates want more HB1 visa programmers when there are plenty of out of work domestic programmers looking for work?

    this is actually related to welfare and entitlement based spending- the poor spend their money in ways that allow the rich to get richer. They do not invest, save, or build wealth. The more money that is given to these, and the more these populations grow, the more the middle class shrinks.
