I have no problem with wealth inequality. People make different choices, some are wise, some are lucky, some lose their shirts. That goes with being human, and no one will ever fix that. The way to fix it is to make ways for people to successfully pick themselves up again.
In case you haven't noticed, our economy is not exactly brimming with ways for people to help themselves if they're in need.
It is, however, brimming with ways to become wage-slaves to someone else. Debt is the new form of slavery. Because education, cars, and houses are all too expensive to buy up front, you pay three times as much over the life of the loan. If you have a job, 20-30% will go to the government in taxes, and another 15% will go to your mortgage, student debt, and car loans.
And, of course, people who don't make much money will feel this pinch more than others. They can't really afford to pay that kind of interest.
