2. The basic assumption is the haves have because they DESERVE all that they have, i.e. Prosperity

Gospel, and because they deserve to have, it is their responsibility to tell those who do not have what they are allowed to have.

HOW do we address this set of assumptions?

The only thing I see out there that addresses this is the moral approach that the Nuns On A Bus are doing.

There is another way, isn't there?

How do we address these assumptions, not as the Prosperity Gospel, not within the milieu of religion, but as economics?

The only thing I can think of is Supply vs. Demand side economics, but I'm wondering if there aren't more ways to talk about these assumptions.
