What the American people think the distribution of Wealth is Far from the Reality
To prove we should have a better distribution of wealth, here are some facts:
People are barely living off of what they have and barely scraping by.
The middle class are barely distinguishable from what the poor class should be.
The top 10% makes more than what most people think they should and to what they deem as fair.
The average income that the top 1% earn per family is $1,019,089 and the bottom 90% earn only $29,840 per family every year.
The average CEO pay is 380 times more than the average worker.
Our ideal wealth is far removed from our perception of reality as the actual distribution is from what we think exists in the U.S.
The bottom 60% of the U.S. don’t even receive half of the nation’s wealth.
We have been promised less taxes, but it never seems to change the way our wealth is spread out.
In fact there are still many people who have to scrape by with only pocket change to get through their lives.
