I'm as disgusted as anyone at the fact that people who contribute nothing to society, like those reality stars, are given a free pass by society, but that's got nothing to do with income inequality - call me old fashioned, but it has more to do with the tears in the moral fabric of society.
I'm a believer in Noblesse Oblige, which is a concept that appears to have been lost in our increasingly self-centred society.
True, but inequality makes displays of decadence more extreme and more visible.Kelinfort wrote: Inequality is not caused by decadence nor is decadence a cause of inequality.
