Closing the gap is pretty simple in my view. All you have to do is be fair about money. Every business is constantly trying to figure out how to work you harder for less pay. Every company selling a product is constantly trying to figure out how to sell you less product for more money.

Also how about we close the gap between America and other countries. In America we are constantly complaining about money and that's all anyone cares about anymore. I watch the tv and see an African child who is just a skeleton. Doesn't anyone think there is something wrong with that? It is almost like all of the world has some sort of mental disorder when is comes to money.
