More Social Class

Wealth gives many privelages in life. First of all, if you have wealth, you have less problems. You can pay bills on time, buy groceries, pay off your house, and support a family. It is a lot harder to do all of that without wealth. Next, it is easier to get out of trouble or stay out of trouble. You have money so you do not need to take it. Last, it takes off stress when you have money. If you are constntly working to earn just enough money to live, then you will be constantly stressed. You will always be worried if you don't get paid because then it is harder to live. It is just like the people who started out with more money in the monopoly game. They did not have to worry about how they were spending money, or even if they would have enough money to keep playing. They also controlled most of the spaces on the board and they almost never went to jail. I think it sucks that it is easier for some people just because they have money, but at the same time I do not think we should try to distribute the wealth more. There is always the opportunity for people to be equal, it just doesn't always turn out like that.
