Wealth inequality is built in to the American system. Black college graduates earn less than white high school drop outs. Medical care, child care, sick days ... and all the things that a GENUINE government provides to support the MIDDLE CLASS and a healthy society is anathema to the Republican party. Supporting SOCIETY...is not SOCIalism. Republicans change words to support their disinformation, misinformation and down right LIES!
The system we have now works for the children of the well to do.
We have a democratic form of political system. The inequality element comes from our authoritarian economic system that perpetually creates oligarchs who eventually undo regulations that chain this authoritarian economic system to minimize it's abusive nature.
Until we create a democratic economic system that prevents the developement of oligarchs, our democratic form of governing is under constant threat.
In the 1860s, the plantation oligarchs of the South started a Civil War to protect their low cost slave labor. In 1933, the industrial revolution oligarchs asked retired Marine general Smedley Butler to lead an army of disgruntled WWI veterans and remove FDR from Office. Butler instead blew the whistle on these oligarchs and FDR went on to pass many new laws of the New Deal to protect and empower citizens. Since then, the new oligarchs of our time have been methodically destroying the New Deal and its protections. They are getting closer to privatizing the remaining tools of citizen empowerment, Social Security and Medicare. Then the oligarchs can get their cut of those trillions of dollars we have tucked away for all citizens and continue impoverishing the 99%.
