Good question, life or people?  I will ponder on that because truly which came first, the chicken or the egg?  Ah this is more news that brings concern.  Have a good day no matter dear RRR ~ Elyse

sadly the whole point of money is to make sure than some people have loads of it and most people have none at all...

Things are just tough! I know I am having my struggles with rising costs of premiums and if I opt out the government will pick one for me! It feels like they have the poor coming and going! You make a good point though, the poor always get hurt when the cuts come into vogue! sam

It is most definitely people who are unfair.  Life is what we choose to make of it.

it is greedy people who are unfair. the little people must be kept down
it is time to rebel against huge corporate pay outs and enormous wages and the rich should take better care of the poor.That was what social justice was introduced for I thought. There willnever be realequality but it is time to reassess the huge differences between those with and those with no hope. Look at me,two big wealthy countries making sure that I don't cheat them of my pennies while big  corporations adn the wealthy take their money to a tax free haven and laugh.
