        @WSJ @WSJecon The problem with inequality argument is it assumes everyone is equal. Same IQ, Skills, Talents, Puts Same Effort into Job, etc

        @WSJ @WSJecon the study makes sense...the older you grow the higher your chances of progressing and accumulating wealth and assets.

        @Kiwigirl58 @WSJ @WSJecon I can tell you that it does work, plenty of people who aren't white/middle class have become wealthy.
