Roswellric - I think you are on the right track in relating this to the government and the dangers that has to everyone who has anything. Any government has the power to determine what you have and what you do not have. We are fortunate that at this time the government uses that power to protect our right to accumulate wealth. But as a voting democracy the vote could elect a ruling majority that changes the government of this country to true socialism or further. I am fearful that the widening gap of wealth will be the primary catalyst for this change. What will happen when the top 1% own 75% of all wealth but the bottom 90% control all the elections? Too many of the talking heads on Fox dismiss these left-leaning protests. I consider it a sign to be taken very seriously. The day may come when you longingly wish for the time when class warfare only consisted of a debating whether or not to raise the tax rate a few percent.
