what do you think ?konichiwa21

If they worked hard for it, they shouldn't have to.

If they inherited the money, then yes.

There's a lot of poor people out there who choose to be poor and homeless. My friend and I had left overs from this resturaunt, these 20 year old couple walked by and were like "Can we have that food, because we have no money and we're homeless" litterally said that to us. My friend kept walking. I asked.. " Why didn't you give the food?" Because they choose to be homeless, they're young and can get jobs if they wanted. True point.groovdafied

Yeah I pretty much feel the same way.

Its their money, let them do what they want with it. If they choose to give it to charities, good for them. If they choose to live the most extravagant life possible, or just let their children inherit it all, thats their right. Mumbles527

Yes, they should.  And they do, through taxation.  The real problems are abuse of loopholes and rates of taxation.   It's the proportions that strike me as wrong right now - too few people control too much of the wealth, and it's rather sickening that certain individuals own several multi-million dollar homes while many more are starving on the street.  You can blather on all you want about laziness and so forth, but it still doesn't make it right.  You don't need to be dining off of diamond encrusted plates when others can't afford basic necessities.  Humility and compassion are virtues that seem to be totally lost on too many of the wealthy, and they pass on their vices to their gloating, spoiled children who brag about attending expensive private schools or post-secondary institutions, and complain about receiving expensive sports cars as gifts because they aren't the right colour.

I'm also irritated by the fact that certain major contributors to society (such as fire fighters, medical personnel, educators, and gifted artists and craftsmen) are not as well-compensated for their efforts as they should be by comparison to the majority of the truly wealthy, who often build their fortunes by selling products which are of much less value, or even harmful, to society.  Examples would be tobacco giants; the oil industry; personal injury lawyers; professional athletes; horrible entertainers such as 50 Cent, who inexplicably attract a large following and leave them stupider for having experienced their 'art;' or profiteering businessmen who leech off of other peoples' innovations and ingenuity (don't get me started on publishers, for instance).

Prep school? I dont think so. My brother has no intentions of going to university, but does that mean he did not recieve higher education??? College and universities are all stated ''higher education'' but I find weird that students in Universities feel superior to college students....greenprince

I mean, my family is lower class and my only alternative was to go to college then transfer to university. The benefits were that the classes were smaller, it was cheaper,  I don't have to share a room with anyone and of course students who begin their higher education career at a community college are more likely to transfer to a higher quality four-year institution than if they had started at a four-year college. Of course, I will always consider my self a person who went to Sheridan college than a guy who went to community then transfer to ( insert university here)
