Elroy, you're totally missing the point... the point is that in the U.S., the "have nots" are getting less while the "haves" are getting more and more, really on the backs of the "have nots."

Hey, if one thing is for sure on this board it is that there are plenty of "points".

I pointed out that the "have nots" in the US have lives that half the population of the planet dream of. You're claiming that the very rich in the US are getting richer, while the rest of the wealthy (that's what the world thinks of your "have nots") are getting modestly less wealthy (although still vastly more well of than half the population of the planet). I don't know whether your claim is accurate or not, but I'm sure that mine is indisputable.

All the laborers here would go be the US "have nots" you describe in a heartbeat if they had the opportunity, but most of them "have not" that opportunity, so they stay.
