On page 126 Wheelen poses the question‚ “Why do some people have indoor trampolines and private jets while others sleep in bus station bathrooms?”.

Why is it legal for Bill Gates to install an 81 car parking garage within his house‚ but over half a million Americans are without homes. To answer his own question‚ Wheelen goes on to discuss the concept of human capital‚ the total sum of skills a given person has

The Struggle of Paying College Athletes The Coach of a football team is just as important as any player performing on the field. In fact his power over the team surpasses that of any one single player‚ the coach can determine whether an entire season is a victory or a loss.
