The 1%

I dont think it would be fair for the government to force the 1% of wealthy people to financially assist the 99% and also this would be more towards the ideas of socialism. But, I think as members of the United States the 1% should do their best to help the people around them considering they would not be where they are if it wasn't for the 99%. I think the 1% should give to charities and other organizations to show their support for the country and help people who have very little, because they don't really need all the money they have but they did earn it so they have a right to choose what to do with it.

I agree with you 100 percent i think you hit it spot on. The 1 percent should not be forced to give their money away at all. After all they earned it. However they should give it away to whom they choose as you stated.

I completely agree with this comment. The 1% don't have to assist the 99%, since they worked hard to get the money, but they should be thankful to them since the 99% helped the 1% get as rich as they are.

I agree with you in saying that the one percent should help out a little because the 99% are the ones that put them there. It's a fact without the 99% buying the one percentage product they wouldn't be there, so they should give a little. I agree
