Agirl:  I find it sad that you have such a sour, bitter perspective.  Ms Swartz points out the very real income disparity of today's America.  That disparity DOES exist...it is REAL.  Do you favor policies such as the proposed tax breaks for the very wealthy which will increase that disparity?  Do you believe in "trickle-down" economics....that making the already rich richer will actually benefit everyone?  What IS your take on the concept of community?  Just how much should we be helping others?  Frankly, your posts seem to reflect a "I've got mine, and to hell with others".  Could you clarify this.  Maybe I'm misreading your view.  Thanks, Gary Crum
