[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So I think the answer to OP is yes, a dystopic society where the top 1% live in luxury while the rest live in poverty and cater to their needs. [/quote] That already exists. It's called the wealthiest suburbs.[/quote] No. I have lived and worked in countries where families have various layers of security down to the "rape" bars between the sleeping quarters and the rest of the home. I have spent plenty of evenings sitting in peoples' backyards walled in and with shards of glass lining the top of the cement perimeter. Middle class families have to devote a large portion of their income to home security. These are countries not necessarily beset by a Syria situation but where the income inequality could basically be represented by a small cliff ledge of the wealthy with a precipitous drop off for the rest of the population. Middle class families are not necessarily immune from kidnapping. These are countries with abysmal rates of tax collection and no safety net. [/quote]
