Subject: RE: BS: Poverty in the USA
I think we all understand the distribution of wealth quite well, Dickey. From the article you linked:

"Since financial wealth is what counts as far as the control of income-producing assets, we can say that just 10% of the people own the United States of America."

What needs to happen is a re-distribution of financial wealth.

That wealth can be re-distributed through tax reform and govt. funding of social programs.
