thank you brother floyd.
this is copied from an e-mail sent by one of those friends who does a lot of thinking for me. his comments follow the quote. amen.
“since 1979, the share of pretax income going to the top 1 percent of American households has risen by 7 percentage points, to 16 percent. Over the same span, the share of income going to the bottom 80 percent has fallen by 7 percentage points. It€™s as if every household in that bottom 80 percent is writing a check for $7,000 every year and sending
it to the top 1 percent.”
Why aren’t people pissed about this stuff? Why do we allow this? We are just ignoring it. I read somewhere that for the first time ever men in their30’s are making less then their fathers did in their 30’s. How bad do things have to get before people get upset? I think we need a class war.
