Only thing the video misses us correcting the gentleman's assumption that hard work is the primary driver for wealth instead of inheritance.

@RBReich -- Where's the follow-up video that shd immediately follow the one you posted? The one making the case that the top 1% aren't even paying their fair share of taxes - to help support the society that helped make them so rich? Also compare 1%er tax rates over the decades. - Još 1 odgovor

I wish the video had also shown the wealth distribution 30, 40, 50... years ago. Then ask the yacht guy to explain how the wealthy got to their current position by sheer hard work and good virtue alone.

Just remember, folks. There are a lot more of us without or very little pie, than those who have the bulk of the pie. And the way to make that more equitable, is by voting. Voting, is literally the answer to most of this countries woes right now. So, VOTE! And VOTE BLUE!

Voting doesn't work anymore. The mega wealthy will just pay to bypass voting or they'll pay to have what they want voted on over and over and over until they win or people get tired of voting. Or they pay to spread wrong info so people vote incorrectly. Democracy is long dead

How much of the wealthiest income was inherited? It’s not about hard work, many of the poor work very hard, it’s about belonging to a rich family and getting richer.
