something I should say, in the country i live, about a year ago, a rather hot scandel (but weirdly, it wasnt projected out as one) was exposed on newspapers all over the country that the top four staffs of the welfare department of our government actually 'earned' $800,000 which was like almost 4 times the salary of our Prime Minister (like President) but the country i live follows more closely to the British system).

Now this raises really important questions of who's taking it for a ride........ they or us?? we Struggle!, ok given the few might abuse it, but they dont tend to sustain this habit for long, as they'd end up resorting to crime and thus be cut off and thrown to jail. But the filthy rich, greedy executives - in my eyes are worse criminals. (By the words I dont mean they broke the law, they haven't, it is just used to illustrate what's really going on, by legal means they still are RIPPING us off, not just the governments but all those involved in the economy. I am sure some you may have stumbled across some articles similar to this. All Im saying i find it really strange that we have to talk about the unknown little guys, with big fingers directed at them, thus completely forgeting where is the real imbalance lies, aliong with gross distortion of how to identify greed, greed of the poor is actually worse and deserving more attention than the greed of the rich?? it is highly interesting we said this every day on ordinary TV programmes constantly bombarding upon us the mindset which teachs us to think the poor must be greedy. it is too weird if you ask me.
