If you want to say that middle class income is not growing FAST ENOUGH


then we can have that conversation. But bottom line the narrative of the fixed pie where the 1% are eating everyone else's pie and everyone else is getting poorer is just bullshit. EVERYONE is getting richer ... some faster than others. But inequality is a political "problem" ... it is NOT a problem that causes poverty or any real issues like hunger, homelessness or undereducation. Nobody is broke because Jeff Bezos is crushing it.
