In a Bertelsmann Foundation study on social justice released this fall, the United States came in deadly last among the rich【M1】______ countries, with only Greece, Chile, Mexico and Turkey faring worse. Whether in poverty prevention, child poverty, income inequality and health ratings, the United States ranked below【M2】______ countries like Spain and South Korea, not mention Japan,【M3】______ Germany or France. It was another sign of how badly Americans are hurting their middle class. Wars, famine and violence have been devastated【M4】______ middle classes before, in Germany and Japan. But when the smoke cleared and the dust settled, a social structure roughly similar to what existed before would always resurface. No nation has ever lost an existing middle class, and the United States is in danger of that yet. But the percentage of【M5】______ national income holding by the top 1 percent of Americans went【M6】______ from about 10 percent in 1980 to 24 percent in 2007, that is a【M7】______ worrisome signal. So before the United States continues on its current road of dismantling its version of the welfare state, of expanding the gap between rich and poor, Americans might do well glance south. The lesson is that even after a large middle class【M8】______ emerges, yawning inequities between rich and poor severely strain any societys cohesion and harmony. The United States has never had the type of robust welfare state that European built after World War II. It didnt need that.【M9】______ Through private initiative and efforts to equalize opportunity, Americans long ago ensured that a huge middle class would provide the social glue to hold his society together.【M10】______
【M1】
