It's interesting that surveys never consider "independent" voters. Even our surveys polarize our views into "us" and "them" categories. I consider myself rich, but I don't think I'm part of the 1%. Net household income is around $150k per year. But I can eat and drink what I want. I'm not lacking. But I feel we're losing ground. Fewer frills, fewer vacations. We used to subscribe to the opera, orchestra and other concert seasons. Not any longer. We do our own house keeping and yard care. I don't have as much to share with charities. We used to be able to tithe more than 10%. Not now.
I'm angry that greed seems a dominant trait in society. If one is a CEO or such, excessive salaries are the norm. Go ahead, ruin the company, we'll even give you a bonus when we fire you. What happened to morals? ethics? Love your neighbor? Concern for more than just your self?
I need to find a way to be a voice in the wilderness, too. Not a whiner that complains. One who cries for justice and equity. I haven't found that voice yet.
