Income Inequality? What are your thoughts?

The American Dream is not about equality of income but rather equality of opportunity. Anyone is supposed to be able to come here and, with hard work, make a better life for themselves.

This is just another liberal talking point to cause divisions in the population that further their cause.

We do not live in a perfect society and, therefore, there are abuses and unfortunate situations. That's life. No amount of social engineering, distribution of wealth, affirmative action programs, etc. will change human behavior will create the utopia that liberals envision.

The formulas for success is still working hard and doing the best you can do with what you have.

It galls me to see the President of the United States and Oprah Winfrey, for example, decry the very system that got them where they are. They should be shouting from the rooftops about the opportunities that exist in this country that results in people from all walks of life, background, races, and sex to achieve their dreams.

Work hard, and your income will equal your potential.
Be grateful for what you have, and be thankful your needs are met due to the sweat of your brow.
Wait for a handout, and it will never be enough.
