Where it would have been impossible for many of them to achieve prosperity and wealth, the new Western World enabled many of them to be successful on account of their dedication and work ethic alone. In F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “The Great Gatsby,” the state of this American Dream

The vast wealth inequality in America (and the rest of the world) has been cited as a problem by Obama in many of his State Of The Union address, the Chairwoman of the Federal Reserve Janet Yellen, and many other liberal politicians and economists. Their talk about the problem of how the “1%” help perpetuate the wealth inequality has brought this issue to the forefront of society.

Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919) is a prime example of the phrase, from rags to riches. During his early and teenage years, Carnegie went through poverty.

The fundamental social question of our age is what will be the ways in which societies reconcile the disproportionate distribution of wealth in nations. Especially with regard to its effects on politics, economics, and culture. Already, this inequality produces an aristocratic class who influences public policy. This influence leads to economic conditions impoverishing the citizenry while enriching the elite. The elite uses this accumulated power for their own interest instead that of society. As

the society an equal income distribution is merely an imagination. Their views were contradicted by the other thinkers like Bowles (1973) and Colinsk (1974) who thought of the inequality as an outcome of unequal opportunity. However, it was Dworkin (1981), Arneson (1989) or Cohen (1989) who introduced the personal responsibility into the literature on equality. Dworkin (1981 a,b) argued about how lack of internal resources can be overcome by external wealth distribution and introduced responsibility

There is an income gap among American workers that prevents the economy from growing and divides the country based on how much money they make. In 2012, a person or household earning over $392,000 a year was considered to be in the nation’s top 1 percent of earners (Stewart). Equal opportunity motivates people to work hard to earn a lot of money. As a result, a gap between the rich and the average worker formed. This gap has continued to grow over the past three decades. Right now the income gap

section{Simple POdtSHS System Example} label{sec:shsexample} Since we are interested in faults and degradation, the system will have three modes and one continuous state, i.e.: egin{itemize} item $mathcal{Q}={q_1,q_2,q_3}={mathrm{OK},mathrm{FAULTY},mathrm{BROKEN}}$ item $n(q_1)=n(q_2)=n(q_3)=1$ end{itemize} The modes signalize the faults of the system, with $q_1$ being the faultless mode, $q_2$ denoting a fault in the system that compromises its operation and finally $q_3$ denoting completely broken
