I am sure that is funny to you, but how about a little reality, the thing you can't quite put your finger on is the direct cause of your grief:

I think the rulers of nations and the wealthy are the people in the audience laughing. This ain't funny. The only personal solution seems to be to make more money, try to start a revolution and get thrown in jail.

This wealth inequality deal is very disheartening. While it encompasses many aspects, the bottom line is that society has become lazy and/or entitled; worse the majority do not understand or have never learned or been exposed to the road to true independence, success, riches and personal satisfaction. True everyone cannot be a millionaire though that capability is still available to most anyone. Self sufficiency is still available and CAN be achieved by most anyone; even in the face of all the current adversity. And those that are successful know they have to give it away to keep it, not necessarily their money but the principles and precepts. We need to mentor our youth and others, now more than ever...
