There was a survey conducted in a recent high school asking them their beliefs on different questions regarding the rich, middle class and poor. This survey prove that there is no such thing as equality in this country. One of the questions that was ask was "How much of the nation's wealth do you believe the poorest of Americans own?" Seventy percent of those high school students believe that the poorest own less than one percent. Think about that for a second. It is fair to assume that one-third of the America's population would consist of poor. With that in mind there are 320,898,410 living in America. So just about 106,966,1367 are poor. So to think that those people own less than 1 percent is really astonishing. In the same similar questions ask to those high schooler about the wealthiest Americas, 34 percent of them believe they own more than sixty percent. 


In the same survey, the high schoolers where as "How much education should children of the poorest of Americans have access to?" Thirty-eight percent believe that the poorest of Americans should have free education throughout all of high school and the first four years of college. A similar question was asked about the weathiest of Americans. The response was as I expect it to be. Seventy percent believe that they should only get free education up to the 12th grade. With that being said how can there be true inequality where we aren't equal in opportunity. 

These astonishing numbers are not only present in the views of teenager but also in adults. In a random U.S Survey asking adults how satisfied they are with the wealth distribution 67% were dissatisfied. Therefore this problem is view in all eyes cross America.
