The political and media propaganda classes who have wrecked the nation through being paid agents are the 1% that bothers me.

Just another corporate media outlet spreading misinformation on the subject.

Last one I read stated that you only needed 34k/family member to be in the top 1% globally... Tried to make it look like people who earned 34k were in the top 1%. It was really $136k/houshold, 68k/parent. They included children to make the wage look lower.

Now this links people into homes of the 1% in the US by marriage. There are so many teachers, their pay is more often less than the 68k/year needed for global 1% and no where near american 1%. But because there are so many teachers, they get lopped in when by chance one marries someone wealthier.

Ideology is not reality.
To make good policy, one must consider all ideologies and decide which best solves the reality of the situation. Ideology is afterall, JUST AN IDEA.

Anyone with a job is a 1%er to the libtards.

basically that chart says any type of job that required some sort of training is in the 1 percent i would call that false. BTW it seems to me if that graph were true that still wouldnt address the 1 percent people are bitching about. The 1 percent are the bankers and ceo of the world who started a class warfare campaign against the middle class the same 1 percent who buy off the politicians and make it sound like they are under attack.

"School teachers don't earn enough to make the top 1 percent on their own, but many live in 1-percent households, primarily through marriage."


the chart is actually the 1% and their gold-digging spouses!
