1% have less morals?
It is really unfair that 1% of our population controls the majority of the wealth in our country. What is even more unfair is that they can use their money to influence our poltics and elections and in essence make it easier for them to become more and more powerful and wealthier leaving the gap between them and the less fortunate much larger then ever before. Although it is wrong for the government to just take away money from hardworking individuals it is concerning that the 1% wouldn't just feel obligated to give their money away to charities and back into the government to help with overall education and wellbeing. Afterall it is the rest of us who contribute to their wealth. It's proven that americans who earn the lowest wages in America give the most money away per capita; which raises a lot of moral questions for those 1%ers.

I agree with you that it shouldn't be right that the people with the most money (which is only 1% of our country) are able to have a bigger role in politics because they can use their money to influence it. I also think the one percent should do their part for America and give money back to lower incomes.
