Question

What social inequalities exist in the United States today,and how do you think they should be addressed?

Answer 1

One of the major inequalities that exist in the United States in the wealth gap. There is a distinct difference between the incomes of the wealthiest Americans (Top 1%) and the poorest Americans. Much of this can be attributed to the concentration of wealth in the hands of the wealthy through access to jobs, education, investments and global markets. At the same time, the poorest citizens lack access to opportunity, jobs, education, investments and the opportunity to improve their situations. The solution is to provide more avenues for the equal redistribution of wealth.
