Meanwhile, the riches 1%, earn 20% of all income in a year, while the bottom 50% earn 12%.

momentary hijack

I'm wondering what people think when they hear this statement. What does it mean to you?

Good question. And when he says the "riches 1%" (sic), does he mean top 1% of income earners in that year?

"Obviously" 20% is too much. I'm wondering, then, how much is the "correct" amount for the top 1% to earn. And what measures need to be taken to get to the correct distribution.
