Hi Kristin, I try not to let the excess bother me too much but I can't wrap my mind around a country where it's possibly for a family with two working parents to not be able to afford safe housing, healthcare and adequate childcare.

I have no problem with people amassing wealth and living a luxurious lifestyle - but when that wealth comes from exploiting workers, how is that justice? 

I hear of so many companies being bought out by private equity groups looking to do whatever they can to trim all the fat and turn it around for a quick profit. Since they aren't planning on keeping it, they do whatever is expedient in the short term, including laying off workers and cutting benefits. It's just business after all.
