Compatriots<div><br></div><div>This is not so much a political issue in The Gambia but it is one in US and probably some other developed world countries. May or may not be an economics issue in Gambia - I simply don&#39;t know!</div>
<div><br></div><div>Citizens to prosper with income I think would be a universal goal for any nation.</div><div><br></div><div>Income equality/inequality on the other hand is not so simple. For instance it may be utopian in a capitalist free world like US to suggest I/equality. How do you do it with policy/law? Also most advocate are elites who where once poor. Upon riches they never share what they earn with a lesser fortune neighbor and most choose to change location of living for more affluent areas. I have never shared my little with a friend/neighbor/relative to equalize the inequality, infact am trying to stand out.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Yes is a lofty goal but I don&#39;t know how in a free capitalist world can we achieve this. A question begs whether is simply politics and/or economics?</div><div><br></div><div>In controlled societies I can see how theoretical can be done. That&#39;s government apportion work among citizens and pay each equal among at the end of the day. Yet in the cause of citizen economic activities inequality will resurface. For instance someone with more demanding goods/services will receive the purchases of the equal earner. Still theoretical that provider can be government. So theoretical is possible in communism/socialism but has in practice never happen </div>
<div><br></div><div>Recently Hilary R Clinton called it &#39;&#39;cancer of inequality&#39;&#39;. Many before her campaigned on it why hasn&#39;t been done so far - in fact many measures show des parity increasing especially between higher bracket and the lower?<span></span></div>
<div><br></div><div>What&#39;s your view more specially it&#39;s pros/cons for/in Gambia.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards</div><div><br></div><div>Burama </div>
