Wealth and Poverty

Reading material -Approaching Great Ideas by Lee Jacobus
“I love money. I love everything about it. I bought some pretty good stuff. Got me a $300 pair of socks. Got a fur sink. An electric dog polisher. A gasoline powered turtleneck sweater. And, of course, I bought some dumb stuff, too.” –Steve Martin
“How many millionaires do you know who have become wealthy by investing in savings accounts? I rest my case.” –Robert G. Allen
Inequality For All is a straight argument; it is Reich’s passionate plea for what he believes. It makes a strong yet controversial claim about the socioeconomic health of the United States today. Briefly outline this claim and the main supporting points. Carefully evaluate the claim through the prism of Smith, Carnegie, Galbraith, Reich, and Warren. This means imagine you watched the documentary with our source authors – what do they say? What does each of them agree with and what makes them mad? Show their thoughts through golden lines. Do not merely reference the obvious points of commonality, but rather make a deep attempt to demonstrate you understand and can articulate the real ideas and implications within our source texts. Finally, there must be a strong dose of your inimitable intellect (not just your opinion). Do not merely pick what you like – you need to demonstrate you have taken all valid points of view on board. What do you think we as a community should do for the future? How could we do this (try to be functional and practical).
