The real evil.

I'm not blaming any one individual for the bad economy. Because it's worldwide. Not only in America. But virtually everywhere. Every place. To blame Obama. Or Congress. That ain't sufficient. Maybe everybody is to blame. Because nobody seems to have the solution. All I know is that the poor and the middle class are suffering the most. As for the rich, even in bad times they have more than enough to get by. And thrive. Maybe that's the problem. The rich have an inordinate amount of the wealth. How about spreading it around? Maybe that will solve the problem. Or at least make conditions a little better for the poor and the middle class. I'm suggesting that's the right way to go. Especially in bad economic times. We gotta help each other. By making the 'haves' give more to the 'have-nots.' Seems like the right and moral thing to do. I'll bet that's the stance that religious philosophers such as Jesus would take. He'd call it the Christian thing to do. To share the world's resources. In a communal way. For the common good. Of course, this is an alien thought. Going contrary to the precepts of staunch capitalists. Sounds too much like evil socialism. But then, maybe the real evil is capitalism. Especially when capitalists become greedy and selfish. --Jim Broede
