Other than having to see these poor folks still struggling, suffering and not getting any help, I would not begrudge these elites for satisfying their ever-growing fat pockets.
That's all i have to say on this issue. Bye and have a good evening.![]()

Originally posted by av98m:Sumiko Tan wrote a pretty good article in the Sunday Times last weekend on Envy. In Singapore. And how one can become envious, and bitter, over the spiralling income gap. When you see the rich able to acquire more and more luxuries while everyone else struggles to keep their head above water due to the rising cost of living.
I fear that given the way things are going, with wages for the elites and non elites moving in opposite directions at the same time, jealousy and bitterness are going to tear society and individuals apart.
Already we can see signs of this.
