Answer 1

1) The chapter includes the actions of the wealthy and powerful. The additional sources describe about the citizens showing power of their wealth to the normal people. It is suggested to provide equality among the people as there is more possibility of corruption also by wealthy people as they have good political connections and due to that the ordinary citizens are facing problems. The additional sources tells about the areas which are facing these kind of problems and how it can be solved. Proper measures need to be taken by ordinary US citizens to fight with the wealth inequality. All these things have lead to many problems as people are not being treated well and below we will discuss about various problems that are faced and how it should be handled.

2) The power and dynasty of wealthy people is being increasing day by day and ordinary people need to resist them and make the place better for living. It is a human right to stand against wealth inequality and so US citizens have opted to stand against this and resist their practices. Below are some steps that have been taken by the ordinary citizens to tackle the actions of the wealthy and powerful people.

• Bolstering of human capital is done.
• Wages and income of ordinary people should be increased as to give them an opportunity to rise themselves and improve their status to stand against inequality.
• Corporate governance is altered. By this procedure the profit would be maximized without any regard to the objective.

All these steps are being taken by normal people against the actions and proper laws and regulations are also made so that there are will be less pressurization on the ordinary citizens by the wealthy ones.

3) All these above information and practices would surely help in resisting the actions of wealthy and powerful as it will help the ordinary people increase their status and capability to stand and fight if any thing wrong is being done to them. All these practices would increase the benefit and revenue of the ordinary people and slowly and slowly they will also be wealthy. What needs to be done is to remove the gap between the people and this will happen only if equal status and rights are to be provided to them.
