Wealth and good times used to be shared... now the good times only reward the top 20%.

You have no idea what the rest of the world considers good times. 98% of Americans enjoy "good times" compared with the "working class" in half the world. I live amongst a huge "working class" population, which means people who get paid $300 per month, work 6 days a week, 9-11 hours per day, in shared communal accomodation, with no driver's license, no chance of job advancement, the employer holds the passport to ensure the worker doesn't leave without paying the ~$1,000 fee for early employment contract termination, and institutionalized discrimination. I could go on. And they left their own country for this job.

Go ahead, tell us how bad US working class has it again...because their health care plan is less than ideal!
