That isn't true. The poor don't get poorer, it is simply that the rich get richer at a faster rate than the poor as they have capital to invest.

I disagree with your premise...I see wealth being redistributed all the time.\n\nIndividuals who were born poor are constantly finding ways to change their circumstance and their tax bracket.  It happens ridiculously often, at least here in the States.  Remember, if you have nothing, it's hard to get any poorer.  So these folks have little to risk, and everything to gain from starting a business.  The poor make arguably the best small business owners.\n\nOn the other side, the rich stop getting richer when they die, and in many, many cases their heirs quickly "redistribute" their fortunes, often squandering a lifetime of wealth in a few short years.

being wealthy does not make you satan.it is just you thrive more than the average joe. and it ok that you have a little more money than the average joe cause you work for it... you shouldn't hate on the rich you should learn from them so you could gain your own wealth..

Wealth doesn't make people happy. It usually makes them possessive, cranky, avaricious, greedier, mean, nasty, stressed, etc., because all they can think about is making more money and protecting the money that they already have.

Unfortunately the poor are usually less educated than the upper class(not  saying all upper class's are smarter than the poor but) people tend to live by example, if the parents are poor and they are raised poor they just seem to find it easier to follow than to fight.

I suppose it's because people in our world today base their respect on money. The more you have it, the more superior you are... It's awful, really. Even if they're poor, they still go buy expensive things which they can't really afford, just so they could brag about something.

Unfortunately we will always have inequalities...it is the way of the world....it the way capitalism works....we have different socioeconomic statuses the haves and the have nots...someone has to work to make people richer and someone has to lead to make the masses want more things to buy...we will always have poor and will always have rich...the most unfortunate part is the gap between the two classes is growing larger.

My psychology teacher had said that most happy people aren't wealthy. Money tends to make people selfish, greedy and mean.\nI wouldn't mind having some though!! \nSeriously, I'm poor, but I'm happy.

true wealthy people seek value within, eliminating the need for material posessions.  Poverty is a state of mind.  You can live richly in the most extreme conditions

Excellent question.\n\nGreed weakens the economy.\n\nPeople need to work together, appreciate one another for what they are worth.  That is the right way to get rich.

You don't want to admit how much money you have if the people around you have less. You don't want to brag or make them feel bad. I think that's why rich people keep what they make to themselves.

rich countries get richer and poor nations get abused and used

... surely social Darwinism would suggest that the poor will elevate themselves through hard work to become the middle classes, while the current rich will either stay where they are (and breed with the expanded population), or become the landed gentry and breed among themselves!

Because they're actually communists. They want everything to be better for them and to do that they think people who have more money should give some of it up. If they had only stayed in school...then they wouldn't be lazing about and sucking on the welfare teat. \n\nI'm not rich either, but I hate it when poor people sit around and don't do anything to improve their situation and hope that the government will make everything better for them.

I'd rather help the poor, because generally, the rich tend to be corrupted by their wealth(it's happens easily, even to the best of us.)The poor, by default, tend to know what REALLY matters in life.
