>The top 1 percent of earners in America now take home about 20 percent of the country’s pretax national income, compared with less than 12 percent in 1978, according to the research the economists published at the National Bureau of Economic Research. Over the same time in China, the top 1 percent doubled their share of income, rising from about 6 percent to 12 percent. cbsnews.com/news/usa-china-income-inequality-economic-research/
Why do people pretend income inequality is some uniquely American problem? It's a mark of all (partially) meritocratic societies.
Can someone please explain why wealth is measured in terms of how many new apple products you can afford? It makes no sense, cheap plastic chinese products have no long term value and replaced almost instantly when the next generic gadget arrived.

Only if you define a modern day Jew as what it really is, that is: Not necessarily matrilineal descent, or patrilineal, Not necessarily a follower of Judaism, Definitely not a keeper of the Law, Not even an active member of a synagogue, So, what is a jew? It is an axe that has had the head replaces three times and the handle seven times. >Jews = members of a cultural and breeding alliance Let the truth be revealed.
