Hierarchy has always existed in all cultures in every species be it mankind or animals even down to the humble ant or bees. Have and have nots. That's how the world turns I'm afraid, don't see how him with his bumbling cohorts will change that. Wish I was on one of the rich lists. Yes, there are changes I'd like to see and hope that we all get a bit more prosperous in the future and things improve but it will be done realistically and not spouting alot of hot air. Talking of rich lists, I've just been reading about the wealth of Britain's aristocracy, top of the list is the new Duke of Westminster who has inherited £9.5billion and is still raking it in hand over fist, it didn't help his dad though who snuffed it aged only 64.

Yes, there are changes I'd like to see and hope that we all get a bit more prosperous in the future and things improve but it will be done realistically and not spouting alot of hot air. Yes, hierarchy is bound to exist and so are pay differentials BUT what is unsustainable is the higher paid getting bigger PERCENTAGE pay rises than the poorer paid. This isn't a political point, it is simple arithmetic. All the money ends up in a few peoples pocket at the cost of the rest which drives poverty. You see this in some Arab nations where the country is very rich but the poverty levels are stupidly high.
