1% is just a nice number. Really I think most people have an issue with the top 0.1% or higher. Doctors and lawyers do not fall in that category, but multi-mill

1% is just a nice number. Really I think most people have an issue with the top 0.1% or higher. Doctors and lawyers do not fall in that category, but multi-millionaires.
Anyway of course people don't want to drag them down just for the sake of it. They want to raise everyone else up. Which requires taxing capital.
Even just among the 99.9%, the world is pretty unfair. Not everyone can be doctors or lawyers or computer programmers. But at least the majority of people have been able to do unskilled work and make a living. But soon, the majority of unskilled will be replaced by machines. And eventually doctors and lawyers will be too. That leaves only capital owners with the majority of the income, and everyone else with nothing.
