Letters: It’s time to share the wealth

Dear Editor

When you consider the vast array of skills developedand used every day by working people in all walks of life; it is truly amazing.

We all rely on the skills of others in so many ways.

Sometimes we forget that it is people like us who are providing all the goods and services that we take for granted. It is the ordinary working people who, with their skill and compassion, make life possible for everyone.

It is the same 99% of the peoplewho create, clean, repair and care for us that also generate the wealth, but have little control over. The ownership of that wealth has now become the property of others.

The workers who created the wealth now find themselves with no say in how it should be invested or distributed, and low pay and unfairness continues.

The wealth created by the 99% now belongs to the few. It is time that this historic confidence trick is challenged and all workers are awarded, and involved in, who benefits from our national wealth.
