Why is anyone surprised? This is the natural outcome of an economic system based on usury, gambling, fake money, and that has no built-in way of "trickle down" economics. Islam has solved this problem over 1400 years ago by having a proper foundation for economics, plus its Zakat laws.

Keep this in mind next time you hear any politician pretending to offer a solution to the problems of student debt, mortgage crisis, inflation, etc. They will not offer real solutions, just fake ones to get votes.
