This problem is a deliberate creation of the 1%, using their minions, the Conservatives (that includes both Scumpublicans and Libertarians...with a sprinkling of Third Party morons on top). The wealthy want their Robber Baronies back.

They've been at it since Reagan. Before Reagan actually, but he did the most damage. This won't be an overnight fix, and the knuckle-walking racist troglodytes will fight us every step of the way, because their preachers told them Jesus said so.
