US media: U.S. wealth inequality has made the society full of gunpowder contradictions will be detonated at any time

Overseas Network, July 18th. On the 18th, the website of the United States "Congress Mountain Daily" published an article entitled "The contradiction between US wealth inequality has become a" earth bomb ", and it is always or detonated. The smell of gunpowder permeated in the domestic air, like the created "earth bomb" (IED), will be detonated at any time.

The article quoted statistics that the most richest 0.1%group in the United States and 90%of the lowest families have the same amount of wealth, and 135 million Americans are poor or low -income people. 18%of American families have annual income of less than $ 25,000. Even before the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, the net assets of the 1/4 American family were zero.

When this kind of economic inequality is combined with the increasingly political violence, the most serious political confrontation in history, and the combination of 400 million guns in the people, American society has the conditions to create a "earth bomb". According to the article, the differences between red and blue states are making the United States more divided into ideology and emotion. From whether abortion and protection of ethnic voting rights to education, firearms, and police reforms, almost all issues lack consensus, indicating the failure of the US political system.

According to polls, more than 3/4 Americans believe that the United States is moving towards the wrong direction. This leads to two key issues: who can lead the United States to a better direction; who will detonate this "earth bomb" under what circumstances. The article said that no one can answer the first question confidently; but the answer to the second question is obvious. (Overseas Network Hou Xingchuan)
