brenthutch 444 #29 February 23, 2013 QuoteDo we agree that the 1% are the robbers? Yes, but lets not stop at the United States. If we look globally, 100% of the United States is in the top 1% of the world. Lets bring the elitist USA to its knees. I'm sure we can all agree to that.

freefalldolphin 0 #32 February 23, 2013 QuoteThe rise in income inequality is due more to changes at the top of the income distribution than at the bottom. While income for all Americans grew 25 percent from 1996 to 2006, it grew 74 percent for the top 1 percent and 96 percent for the top 0.1 percent. A large part of this was again driven by continuous cuts to income and capital gains taxes. In short, the affluent have been keeping more and more of their income while ordinary Americans have faced stagnant wages and disappearing benefits. http://www.commondreams.org/view/2013/02/22-6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
