He has voraciously read about those failings in books that propose new approaches to narrowing the gap between rich and poor.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://online.wsj.com/public/article_print/SB120113473219511791.html">In particular, he said, he's troubled that advances in technology, health care and education tend to help the rich and bypass the poor.
