I'm sympathetic to the article, but the author is painfully confused about "the rich", lumping everyone with more money than her into the same category. For instance, she mentions "1 percent—the Trumps and the Murdochs, the very, very rich." No, most of the 1% is a completely different world from the Murdochs, over three orders of magnitude away from the very rich and much closer to the middle class. "What about the, say 19 percent of Americans in the upper-class income tier": who seriously thinks that 19% of Americans are upper-class? She's confusing the upper quintile with upper class. "The world’s future landlords, multinational business owners, CEOs and media executives": one category here isn't like the others. Landlords (of which there are 8 million in the US) really have nothing in common with multinational business owners.
