This is true in Korea and other countries. With the future potential loss of jobs to AI and robots, the poor will only get poorer. While those who hold shares, own companies, or have real estate will keep getting richer.
Read all about it in the article below.

So, what are you gonna do about it, Korea? No plans?

BBC Film Implicates Korean Government In Sewol Ferry Disaster
The Korean media seemed to point all the blame at the operators of the ferry. However, the Korean government and corruption were also to blame.
There were supposed to be safety inspections, training, and other regulatory procedures which were not carried out properly or not at all.
The ferry was illegally modified and still passed the safety inspection when it was commissioned after being renovated.
The ferry was overloaded and the freight was not properly locked down.
The people manning the Coast Guard stations were negligent in their duties. The actions of the Coast Guard and Korean Navy did not positively or effectively assist in the rescue.
The situation room at the Presidential compound which is supposed to be used in these kinds of disasters was not used.
And so on...
The BBC film focuses on these points. Thank you BBC for doing something mainstream Korean media cannot seem to do.

Highest Percentage of Americans Approve of Marijuana Legalization
61% of Americans polled want marijuana to be legalized in the US and 88% want legal medical marijuana. That is the highest ever percentage. More than half of those polled believed that alcohol was more harmful than marijuana while only 8% felt that pot was worse than alcohol.
Time: Number of Americans Supporting Legal Pot Shoots Higher
In a few years Canada, US will have legal pot. Two countries have legalized pot already. It is widely used around the world.
Korea, when will you start changing your outdated laws and prejudices? Probably losing at least several billions of dollars while in denial of a drug problem. They always say on TV that there is no drug problem in Korea. Maybe less in Korea, but why do young Koreans go abroad so often and spend so much money?
It seems useless to rant and rave, but it relieves some of the stress.

Science Proves Existence Of "Higher" Consciousness
Neuroscientists observed increased neural signal diversity in people under the influence of psychedelic drugs.
The diversity of brain signals provides a mathematical index to show the level of consciousness. For example, people who are awake have more diverse neural activity than those who are sleeping.
This makes being high, a more alert state of consciousness. Contrary to popular belief that stoners are dumb, they are merely more interested in their thoughts than other people's opinions of them.
Just luv science!
Science Daily News: Evidence of a 'higher' state of consciousness?
Many US congressmen predict federally legal recreational marijuana within 5 years. What is Korea doing? Losing out on all those billions of dollars and jobs.
