At least in the western world only the rich have the resources to begin to solve the problems of the masses. The middle class and poor are scrambling just too hard just to survive another day.
It is not by accident that I chose this title because like many I can see the writing on the wall. Because the United States still has programs like food kitchens for the poor and food stamps for some the types of problems seen in France at the time of Queen Marie Antoinette aren't likely to happen in the U.S. However, as an American the downward mobility taking place in both middle class and poor people is astounding for my lifetime(I was born in 1948).
I was reading an article about the thousands of people living in Los Angeles, California(now the homeless mecca for america) who are living in their Recreational vehicles, Vans, trucks and cars. Some are working at jobs, some are on disability income or retirement income, but none can afford rent or to own their own homes. I found this article odd because traditionally, the mecca for homeless without vehicles was always San Francisco. For a long time, other states paid to bus their homeless people so they wouldn't freeze to death in the winter to San Francisco where the winter temperature range tends to be about 40 to 70 degrees farenheit on an ordinary year. It could be higher or lower in a non ordinary year.
So, to make a long story short, the rich are the only ones in the western world, at least who can help solve these systemic problems for the middle class and poor. If they don't solve these problems in some useful way then their wealth likely will be chipped away by the middle class and the poor trying to survive any way they can.
To the best of my ability I write about my experience of the Universe Past, Present and Future
