priveleges of the wealthy
after playing all these games and watching a 2 week movie i think im pretty well educated o n wealth. weatlh gives people the ability to mess up and have fun doing it. the wealthy control most aspects in life becase they are viewed as the hard working succesful people everyone should listen to if they want to have money. the wealthy have so many opportunities and ways to achieve and get what they want. they control america. everyone looks up to the wealthy not because of who they are, but becasuse of the money theyve made. i think that wealthy get togethers would suck cause no one knows each other they just know they have money and dont care who they are. my 3 main examples of priveleges of wealth are better education, material comfort, and influence. the wealthy have the ability to get the best education possible for themselves and their children, because a lot of the times enough money can influence anybody. the wealthy obviously have great material comfort, being able to afford huge houses, nice cars, vacations, plenty of food, etc. the wealthy especially have influence in america, if the wealthy are unhappy then usually things are done to make them happy. lots of decisisions are made only to improve the welfare of the wealthy, when they need nothing of the sort. the movie definetly showed that the richer people were more educated, better dressed, and had better material comfort. monoply showed that the richer u are the easier it is to play and buy whatever you want. i think something should be done to combat these priveleges but it is hard. first, education should be available to everyone no matter their economic background. next i think that we need to somehow spread the welath of the rich, only a couple percent of the population control a ton of the wealth so we need to sprread it out to the poor. next, we need our government to stop sucking up to the rich. even though they are extrmeely influential because of their money we need to stop trying to comfort those who have the best comforts, we need to focus on those who live on minimum wage salaries to support a family. i think if we make the classes closer to equal in wealth then we are going towards communism, so i think classes are "good" but not when its impossible to move around and its hard to change ur personality to a different class.
