The Wall fell, now the inequality needs to.

Yesterday, at the Brandenurg Gate, there was a sense of jubilation - that 20 years ago, Germans were audacious enough to hack the Berlin Wall down. When West Germany was unified with the East Germany, they were also unifying themselves with an economic mess.

In 2009, that mess has yet to be cleared. East Germany still depressingly lags behind West Germany. They are significantly poorer with high unemployment rates. There is still much work to be done.

When the Wall fell, inequality did not fall with it.
