Lowest Denominators

Get Rich generation ignores society 

Thank you for a truly thought provoking article. It's central theme is, regrettably, well beyond my Baby Boomers' generational grasp ("A view of wealth to make us richer", May 30).
Witness the obsession that encourages unrelenting individual wealth creation regardless of the consequences for the rest of society.
Consider negative gearing. Despite the well documented restrictions of home ownership for following generations, we have elected leaders who own 13 properties each.
Until we have elected representatives who lead by example, instead of playing politics calibrated to appeal to our lowest common denominator, l don't see a chance of change. - Cleveland Rose, Dee Why
