The 20% can be completely left alone while you bring the bottom line up. but the <1% always manage to convince up to the 80% that they will be affected too. this results in what I call the right wing poor people. People that can only benefit from more taxes to the rich and land redistribution, but because they see their palpable earnings as being part of some intangible upper middle class (e.g. poor people that own one home, or programmers making $170k a year in sf) they are against any of that. it's the most effective propaganda war.
