We the People? Wealth Inequality in America

3/6/2013

0 Comments

 
Wealth inequity is nothing new, as we've all witnessed firsthand the gross disparity between the haves and have nots.  

But what if our perceptions of wealth inequality weren't even close to reality?

During the economic crisis of 2008, homeowners began to increasingly lose homes to foreclosure sales while their lender banks received federal bailouts and, in some instances, approved golden parachutes for departing CEOs -- seemingly disparate treatment, and certainly disparate outcomes, for the 99% and the 1%.

Our clients are not amongst the ultra-wealthy, or even the rich, but rather are middle-class or poor individuals and families, small business owners and non-profits, each looking to our legal system to balance the scales blindly in pursuit of justice.

A quick view of this viral video on just how misguided are perceptions of wealth inequality really are, however, may well have you questioning just how possible meting justice can really be.
