Discuss the issues of wealth and poverty.
• Assuming that we could equally divide all the world’s wealth and assets among everyone, would stratification soon be evident among societies again? Why or why not?
• Do you think that it is possible to end absolute poverty in the world? Clearly, it is technologically possible because the world already has more than enough food to supply everyone. However, is it politically or culturally possible? Take a stand and explain your position using a sociological viewpoint.
