Financial Inequality "The 99%" and why Nurses Should Care

One big issue in our nation right now is the level of financial inequality. You may have heard that the wealthiest in our nation control an exorbitant amount of money but
Why should this matter to nurses?

The truth is that this extreme polarity is much worse than most people realize.

Watch it! You will find that you couldn't even comprehend!



Ok so why should this matter to nurses?

We do alright and who am I to say that another shouldn't succeed?

The truth is that Extreme Financial Inequality is inversely correlated with almost every negative

health concern, social problem and vital issue that is hurting our nation!

Richard Wilkinson Presents the Evidence in this Excellent Video.

At least check out the first few minutes it will make a lot of sense.




I especially loved the part where he discusses how it doesn't matter how we get there it only matters that we do.

It also was very eye opening how the level of wealth in a nation compared to other nations doesn't really matter.

This means we need to lose the idea that we need to grow our economy and start to
Balance and Heal our economy!
