Wealth Distribution in this country...

I have a few hot-button issues that get me worked up...this is probably the number one issue.  I am really ticked off at the government for the changes that they have progressively made in the past 30-40 years that have led to the rich getting richer/poor getting poorer.  Not to mention the FED, which should be done away with.  We are in the same situation that we were in right before the Great Depression where the top 1% richest Americans hold 25% of our nations wealth, and the top 10% hold 50% of our nations wealth.  The economy crashed then, and it will crash again, because most of the consumers (the bottom 90%) can't afford anything more than necessities.  This is not even taking in to consideration the HUGE problems that our government faces concerning our tax system and our budget deficit, and the world-wide recession/depression/stagflation...whatever the case may be.  We are all teetering on the brink of a very scary future in my opinion.
