Hey Parth,

Maybe you could explain what the 80/20 rule is and what it means to you?

I would love to hear your opinion so I could discuss it as well.

Sorry, I should have done this before, but basically the rule is that 20% of the world's population is consuming 80% of the world's resources, whereas 80% of the world's population is consuming only 20% of the resources. The 20% population as you may have guessed is the rich, developed countries like Canada, and the U.S. And the 80% is the rest of the world, which is basically living in poverty.
This is due to the greediness of rich countries and how they make international trade very, very unfair. People who do most of the work (labour) get paid the least, or comparatively less in terms of how much work they put in. Such people include farmers in 3rd world countries. I say screw the BS government, they don't know what's right for humanity. We need to change this as it affects none other than people.
