The media and many people spend too much time on the wrong 1%. Focusing on the wealthiest 1% generally breeds jealousy, envy, greed and contempt. Who does that really help?
The 1% we should be focusing on is the 1% that has a criminal element. And that should be the sole metric. If they do criminal activity, you throw the book at them. Only those that consistently demonstrate a desire to reform have the potential for any leniency. Like law and order used to be.
Treat all criminals the same, without exception for race, religion, or nationality and you will reduce social unrest immediately. People want equality under the law for everyone. No special treatment.
The people who are protesting now were simply sitting at home 3 and 10 weeks ago. They were not in the news.
But then the police and media and government seemed to be playing around with a very tragic situation which stirred things up. Stop doing that. These three institutions need to do better: and quickly please.
