No developed country has greater concentration of income and wealth and yet constantly derides its working class as moochers and "takers", as the U.S. I can tell you how it works in the other developed countries, because I've lived in a few - no overfed RomneyBot at the top would dare disparage the working class and be fully intact by the end of the day much less run for office. People know who does the dirty work in the real economy. The days when the vulture capitalists can milk the U.S. middle class with impunity, are coming to an end...
The chart above is the dispersion of income by country. Higher numbers indicate greater concentration of income (darker shades of red). Lower numbers indicate greater income equality, towards yellow. And to think we are daily inundated with bullshit propaganda about America's new unsustainable minimum wage, the "47%" takers etc. Notice how Chile has the highest inequality of wealth among the OECD countries. That's the only country in the world that took direct advice from Milton Friedman on how to run its economy,
as documented in Shock Doctrine. I'm not saying Friedman was the Anti-Christ, only that he knew where to find him - hanging out with Ayn Rand...and to think there are still toolbags across the internet at this juncture promoting Friedman's manual on how to impoverish millions while turning your country into a Third World sweatshop. These last Friedmanites will all be silenced in due course, of that I am 100% certain. They are the last ones to realize they are on the wrong side of history.
And to think these figures are from the CIA of all sources, the last bastion of apparent "objectivity" in the U.S.; which of course says less about that organization, and everything about the corporate tabloid whores who make up the lamestream media:
