A nation divided
What to do about the ever widening gulf between rich and poor?
Mortimer B. Zuckerman
We are becoming two nations. The prosperous are rapidly getting more prosperous and the poor are slowly getting poorer. George W. Bush did well to rebuke his party when House Republicans maneuvered to balance the budget by proposing to delay the earned income tax credit for the working poor梡aying it in monthly installments rather than an annual lump sum. e“I don’t think they ought to balance the budget on the backs of the poor,” Bush said.
