I personally don't mind "rich, middle class poor" what I do mind is the vast difference in that spectrum and how bad the bottom 20% of the USA really do have it. You shouldn't have to work 12-16 hours a day of unskilled labor to have a car and decent place to live. No to mention the few million homeless that we have. While the upper 0.1% are grotesquely richer than the rest of us and continue to only enlarge that gap. I can't agree with you at all. With technology improvements we should have a decent spread in wealth and it should be diminishing not increasing. This is indeed where the government should come in with wealth distribution. For a human being it doesn't matter if you have 1 billion or 100 billion you really still have far more than enough money.
