Shocking Statistics: America's Income gap between the RICH & POOR
"Wealth Inequality in America" - Infographics on the distribution of wealth in America, highlighting both the inequality and the difference between our perception of inequality and the actual numbers. The reality is often not what we think it is.I blame government in that it has given the wealthiest incredible tax loopholes that the rest of us can't also enjoy. You need to realize that the cost of government is mostly paid for by the middle class and not by the upper class. The wealthiest use their money to buy influence. Personally, I think capital gains should be taxed as income , people don't realize it doesn't matter if Republicans and Democrats work together unless they are beholden to the majority's will. It doesn't matter who the president is or who holds what seats in congress, if the fourth branch of government isn't working its all broke.
