#1 There's always a top 5%. There may be some shifting around of its occupants, but every society/culture have their 5%. It's been the stupidity of the rest who've allowed the 80 percent to be destroyed in the name of the bottom 15% that is in the works now. The Beltway has always defined 'poor' as the bottom 15%. Never mind that its not the poor of Haiti or Somalia or god knows where. The progressive socialists have been using that 15% to destroy the 80%. Every act is justified for the poor, for social justice, for income equity, etc. Of course its about the accumulation of power, as there has always been poor, there are poor, and there will always be poor. No government program can remove the consequences of the exercise of human free will to choose badly. It's a human trait observed for hundreds of years - you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.
