Wicked Problem Rap: Income Inequality Sucks

Abstract

Income and wealth inequality is on the rise in the United States of America. While a select few are seeing their wealth increase dramatically, the large majority of Americans are struggling economically. The United States' stubbornness to remain chained to a rugged version of capitalism is the root cause of the inequality that is running rampant in the United States. To reach a large audience, I created a rap song to convey the feelings of most Americans. This rap song outlines the unfair treatment of the American people, the ineptitude of the government, and the large sums of money billionaires create, which leads to widespread inequality.
