- cel1ne 10y agoAh, wrong link, here is a bit more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recent_Distribution_of_Wealth_in_the_World#In_the_United_States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recent_Distribution_of_Wealth_...
- nstj 10y agoFrom your link: > 1995: top 1% control 38.5% of wealth > 2010: top 1% control 35.4% of wealth I'm still not following your line of thought?
- cel1ne 10y agoLook at the numbers for 1980, but you're right, it's not a good example. My thought is that it's established that there's a percental wealth/income gap that's getting larger, not smaller. It might not be very enlightening to classify just 99% / 1% here, though.
