More on the economy...

Conservative, wealthy economists love to discuss the dangers of the American deficit/debt, but never, ever do you hear them discuss the problems caused by the widening gap between the wealthy and the poor. This redistribution of wealth in the country, from the middle class to the upper crust, has reduced demand and shrunk the economy. It is a VERY serious threat and if left undisturbed, will bring the nation down as quickly as the debt problem.
