I disagree
Look at the GDP per person in 1982 and 2017
Look at the supposed wealth of the forbes 400 in 1982 and 2017
A much greater percentage of wealth is going to the top 400 now than in 1982
Have they earned it or has our current system made it so they can accummulate it.
Is that a good thing for society as we know it?
How has home ownership changed in the middle class since 1982 and why?
What drove Amherst, Cerebrus, Front yard, Pretium, Tricon to buy up foreclosed homes?
They have spent billions buying up homes.
Your kids will be serfs.
