What's the answer to the growing wealth inequality in the US?

If the rich won't share via wages & benefits and will do all possible to avoid paying their share of taxes, the concept of working your way up is a bill of goods & the "American Dream" is a fallacy,

I trust a well formed union to keep a collective's best interest in sight more than a C-suite making tens of millions a year with an eye on nothing more than their stock price.

It’s certainly not unionizing against one of the best salary paying companies and highest tax paying companies like Apple

Maybe start having politicians start paying more attentions to AMERICANS instead of say Ukraine?

My family was forced to flee eastern Europe to the US with the last facist to march through Europe as the world "tut tut'ed" & refused to act.
I won't even start on the Ukraine comment.


Collective bargaining is beneficial regardless of who the employer is. 
Apple should welcome their workforce forming a collective voice.
This doesn't mean that their leadership isn't immune to the same greed that has infiltrated corporate America & destroyed the middle class.



Actually, the sad part is that politicians *are* paying attention - the system of rewarding the wealthy at the expense of the working class is playing out precisely how they planned it to.

Trickle down economics were a lie sold to the populous that only propagated the concentration of wealth among the elites.
The two party system has provided the social cover (us vs them) to allow the politicians (both parties) to continue to provide means of extrapolating ever-increasing wealth from the capital the rich already control.

Us vs them is the wealthy elite (literally all Washington DC politicians) vs the dying middle class & the trodden down working class.

I agree. Clinton would have easily beaten Trump if not for all the deplorable cheating for him.

this shit is rigged. Trump himself said it.

Good luck with that. You'll be waiting until mankind invents new battery tech. 

garmin vivoactiv lasts 13 days.
how?
they allow you to selectively turn off the GPS 

and you cannot get the (finally available) 2 TB SSD upgrade on the 13"

the purpose of a portable is to be portable. some professionals don't want to travel with a 15"
Apple needs a 13" *real* pro that can be a smaller, spec-maxed computer.
