A question about the figure of 99%
Edited on Mon Oct-17-11 09:59 PM by panader0
Of course the top 1% are way above the rest of us. But I saw a chart, here on DU, that showed the income levels, a pie chart I think.
The next 5% aren't doing too bad either. I am in no way putting down the power of the "99%" slogan, but can anyone provide a chart showing income levels?
I guess what I'm trying to say is that the next five percent should feel nervous too.

Wow a DUmmy thinking ahead, after they are done looting the 1% they will need a new target.

1. IIRC, the top 10% own 99% of everything.
So 99 is a good number that works the same backward and forward, I guess. ;)
Might as well just jump the gun and start saying, "Eat the 53%".
:mental:

I would wager that just about every American is in the top 10% of the world in terms of wealth, a fact that the DUmmies refuse to face.

How could 10% of people own 99% of everything?
Studies show that 60% of the time, this works every time.

^ DUmmie studies are epidemiological though. Never forget that. ;)
