This inflicted a mindset into Americans that they had to work hard to earn, known as the American Dream. As people continued to pursue this wealth, it caused more of the country's wealth to be distributed more among the rich, which took away money from the poor. ]]> 2017-08-09 03:45:21 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443370 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443414 As the importance of value in terms of money and the assets that you own increase, people will start looking towards the life of 'owning everything' and to have fun and when this happens, morals and value in life will very much easily change our social systems in terms of human values in our way of life. Also due to the importance of wealth, people are treated differently with their social status or classes and gain more respect.]]> 2017-08-09 03:46:04 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443414 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443420 From my point of view is that the rich become richer since they work really hard and would not stop earning money. Some poor people would not have the opportunity to work and the poor will become poorer by the day goes by. in conclusion the rich become richer and the poor will become poorer which will cause inequality. ]]> 2017-08-09 03:46:13 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443420 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443431 as people see money as a inspiration, people will start looking towards the life of owing everything ]]> 2017-08-09 03:46:29 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443431 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443454 Pursuit of wealth - greed, somehow throughout histories of many cultures represent the demise of an era, just like how the ancient people have looked past this character of human beings and predicting the end of every world with humans will be the same. Also mentioned, every end is a new beginning. With the greed for wealth leads people astray to go for corrupted means of money earning. Once this corruption begin to infest on the rest of the structure, the entire social stratification system corrupts, leading to another reformation of a 'more sustainable' system. Whether the system corrupts again and repeats the cycle or not, it all depends on the evolution of human kind as time goes.]]> 2017-08-09 03:46:57 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443454 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443505 The pursuit of wealth makes us blind to the eventual consequences we face. It makes us unacceptably greedy and at the same time, covers up the manners of sin. Our attitudes and behaviour towards certain issues change because the mindset of the rich is that money is the solution to everything, but it isn't. The pursuit of wealth is the so called 'American Dream'.]]> 2017-08-09 03:48:09 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443505 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443719 People of the rich just non-stop earning money, far more than they need, they took all the chances, the poor can't do anything because there are no chances left for the. The rich become super rich, and more and more poor people, causing wealth inequality and make our society changed, not like before.]]> 2017-08-09 03:50:11 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443719 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443723 Wealth is a resource, not an end goal. ]]> 2017-08-09 03:50:17 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443723 kenchuan01 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443757 After the lesson, what I've gained from the lesson is about the wealth inequality in America. The inequality of wealth meant that the income of every poor American is having very less income and it is even getting worse as the most numbers of the poor can even register just because that they way too poor. ]]> 2017-08-09 03:50:54 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443757 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443921 The rich have works and pursuit to become more and more rich and leaving the poor to have a less of income and become even poorer. With them not being able to do anything, it has cause the social system to become unbalance and have make the gap of the rich and the poor becoming bigger. Well the rich becoming richer and the poor becoming poorer. Society has changed and the top people in the country has control in most of the money in the country well the rest have less control of the economy]]> 2017-08-09 03:53:18 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443921 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443991 Opportunity are taken away from  the poor, as the pay are low, and their paychecks are less then money earned in an hour, but they worked hard even thou nothing would change. The rich count on their pursuit of wealth, for them to be able to earn more, therefore increasing the gap between the rich and poor even bigger.]]> 2017-08-09 03:54:14 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180443991 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180444055 Blindly pursuit of wealth - it has make the social to become an issue. How? As richer always eager for more money(income) which make the poor to fell into wealth inequality. By the time pass, the richer become the one who control the highest economies (trade & sales) ]]> 2017-08-09 03:55:07 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180444055 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180444217 Once people getting richer and richer, they'll pursuit and work for more. Therefore the poor left with no opportunity as the rich people have taken all and left nothing for the poors. This lead the social system has becoming unfair an unbalance meanwhile a huge increase of differences in higher class and lower class. ]]> 2017-08-09 03:57:40 UTC https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180444217 chua0923 https://padlet.com/rezlanamushadiq_1/4xmpb8hz9myt/wish/180444309 In today lesson, i have observed the differences of the Wealth Inequality between 1920's and today's world have changed.
