Pew says that people think the elderly need more help and that 65% of people feel like they do not have enough help while 64% of people feel like the wealthy get too much help by the government 

Cap article says that the reason that the wealthy are getting more help are because they are more respected and have more money to pay the government

The atlantic says that older people usually dont have 401ks saved up since it costs too much and by the time when you are older you use d all of your money on helping your children or grandchildren out and forget about yourself  due too helping out others

a counterclaim is that the articles could be fake and that the graphs are all made by the conspiracy theorists and some illuminati stuff is going on behind the scenes but the data shows that the government favors people with more money than people with barley any old money

The data that led to this research question was from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics which stated that Asian people make the most money in the United States. Moreover, the American Journal of Public health indicates that black people experience higher mortality rates when it comes to medical conditions. 

A cite from pew research center discusses the prominence of income inequality and how the income of black Americans has long trailed that of others. Research shows about 2/3 of Black American’s don’t currently have enough money for the life they want. 

About 2/3 of U.S. adults see clinical trials as very important. More Prominently, a majority of Black (59%) and Hispanic adults (58%) say clinical trials are very important because they have been underrepresented in clinical trials throughout history. This lack of representation stems from a history of mistreatment in medical research.
