A Follower Of Bacchus
I think that what today we are viewing in our society and calling wealth inequity is actually an income bubble.
There is a "bubble" mentality everywhere: everything is fast and furious and new jack.
It is Alan Greenspan's "irrational exuberance".
The overly energetic ( new jack ) way of life leads to irrational exuberance.
I mean, it's like the Bacchantes (or Bacchae) of Euripides, is it not?
...The family is destroyed, with Agave and her sisters sent into exile. Cadmus and his wife Harmonia were actually honored by Dionysus when he turns them into snakes. Tiresias, the old, blind Theban prophet, is the only one not to suffer.Wikipedia
Sort of sums it up nicely.
