according to gallup polling between 1-3% of people self-identify as upper class. no matter your definition that's gonna include people with merely $20MM in wealth.
and i'll add that $20MM definitely gets you regular lunch with congresspeople and maybe even a ride on airforce one (I know someone who donated enough to Trump to get this and isn't a billionaire).
- programmarchy 6y agoStill won’t address my point. Compared with what the elites are getting, a ride on air force one is a pat on the head. Get a clue.
