    It means this thread is going to end up in D&D.

    I hate it when articles point out a problem but don't suggest a solution.

    Natural disasters suck too. Let's write an articule pointing that out. JOURNALISM ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED

    It's not the responsibility of journalists or news outlets to suggest solutions. They're just there to report the news.

    We need some old fashioned trust-breakers and campaign finance reform. Not sure how that is even debatable but move it over to the basement.

    Yes, but they could have reported on the news of some economics expert who feels he has a means to fix the problem. This feels like half an article to me.

    Why?

    Because my family's money (assuming we had some) belongs to the government?

    Because the government doesn't waste enough money already?

    Please tell me you are trolling.

    I agree with Raven... the real issue here is the article, not the fact that half of humanity is rapidly getting poorer and extreme wealth is concentrating. :rolleyes:
