Economic Inequality


It's not a recession - it just feels like one

Making a living has lately been tough:
One per cent grabs most of the stuff
Most others are reeling
And all have the feeling
That they really aren’t getting enough.

Based on Timothy Egan's op ed piece in the NY Times - Jan 24, 2014


A few billionaires (eighty-five -
And the richest people alive),
Combined possess more
Than three and a half billion poor
Who may not have enough to survive.
