Truth to tell, I don' know how to handle these cruds at the top. I sort of just let it all slide by, they're getting rich at the country's expense that is. But then that has been they're way all along. The only time it has hurt is like now when the whole country seems to be in such dire straights. I've considered it happening for many years as I saw that countries like China, getting junk built by laborers getting paid very little, to then send the stuff to the U.S. charging a lot relatively in the process.
Here in Tonga I have my small retirement which will now get even smaller as the dollar falls, then I have rents on three apartments, which are also controlled by the marketplace, and so far that has continued to go up. I balance this all by keeping my net expenditure on stuff very low, living a sort of hippy life style, with little, anyway, in the stores here to buy. It seems to work out fine.
I have never had a whole lot of excess to consider. I was a student up until about 30, then moved to New Zealand where I was also paid like a student, so really, I have never lived high on the hog at any time. This style of living suits me just fine for some odd reason, maybe because that's how it has always been.
Now there are these fat cats on Wall Street and in banking who are gloating over their getting paid huge bonuses. Fine and dandy, in my opinion, as they will sort themselves out. Thing I have always found is that I m happiest having little and working my own life out, and if they have everything laid on, so to speak, that's fine, because ultimately they lose by it. What they will do is socialize with one another, trying thereby to make their life seem normal, but they never took the opportunity to sort things out for real, like having a 'cheap' bike to spend hours over.
