wealth gap
And no one should be surprised.

The gap between the top 1% and everyone else hasn't been this bad since the Roaring Twenties.
And the lackeys from the worthless TeaParty's solution,
Give the wealthy more money.

That wasn't even close: In reality, the top 20 percent controlled about 84 percent of the wealth, while the bottom quintile controlled just 0.1 percent. The combined net worth of the bottom 40 percent, in fact, accounted for just 0.3 percent of the nation's wealth. (See chart below, where that bottom 40 percent doesn't even show up.)
