Mark Goulston

Another current catch-phrase is the complaint that the nations of the world are divided into 'haves' and the 'have-nots.' Observe that the 'haves' are those who have freedom, and that it is freedom that the 'have-nots' have not.

Ayn Rand

Marco Rubio

Anthony Scaramucci

The war is underway. It's class warfare. It's Off With Their Heads 2.0. It's going to be a battle between the haves and the have-nots. Only a very few have everything, and way too many have much too little.

Gerald Celente

We see that in the top problems in the world between haves and have-nots, generally we find that the root cause is education.

I think, unfortunately, we've always lived in a world of massive inequality: inequality between the haves and the have-nots, inequality between men and women that not only exists temporally but geographically as well.

O. T. Fagbenle

The free market is notorious for distributing resources in a highly unequal manner, with great concentrations of wealth at the top and poverty at the bottom. Our social programs, modest compared to those of many other Western countries, play an important role in redistributing some of those resources from the haves to the have-nots.
