It is trying to point out a major flaw in the system. If an entire student body fails a class, then something must be wrong. The teacher isn't doing their job. Ideally, you would have a few exceptional students with A's, the majority with B's and C's, and few at the bottom with D's and F's. The vast majority should not be suffering or failing. Wealth inequality: One of the biggest issues we face today and no one is talking about it. The top 1% of the population owns 40% of the country's wealth. The bottom half only controls 2.5%! A CEO earns 400x what the average employee earns, which means that it takes an employee 50 days to earn what the CEO earns in 1 hour! Is there no alternative? Or can the 99% come together and reverse this vicious cycle?\n
