I think it is sad that people can't afford suppressors and have to use oil cans.

Please show me a study that establishes that the issue of income disparity can be reduced to a simple example involving two individuals.

The income disparity comes solely from the fact that some people are getting fabulously wealthy while everybody else is not.  Everybody else isn't getting poorer.

Yep.

And its ruining your country too.

People don't make enough money at work, so they have to feed off the gov and then you're like 15 trillion dollars in debt. Solid nation building

You can thank free trade agreements like NAFTA and the new TPP that repubs and dems are trying to push through ATM for the transfer of wealth out of the middle class.

Is it me or does it seem as though both major party in the US are not working in the interest of Americans? Nobody seems to like any of them.

Americans are well aware of this. Approval ratings hover around single digits. They have a wide array of tactics to keep people divided and unfocused on what actually matters so they can keep the shit show running though. A lot of old voters are heavily invested in the status quo so they are terrified of supporting someone who proposes anything different.

They are not making less money per hour.  They are working less hours.  Because of Obamacare and other socialist destruction.  You can live off of minimum wage in Alabama if you don't have a fucking kid.  Don't have a fucking kid if all you're worth is minimum wage.

If you can't compete in the global market then tough shit.  Do you know what would be a real boon to the American worker?  Throw out all the dirt cheap illegal competition.
