Between 1950 to 1980, those of us who are in the 0-90% increased our income by 75%. Those in the 1% saw an increase of 80% in their income. After Reagan, between 1980 to 2008 we saw an increase of 1% for those in the 0-90%. However, for the 1% they had an increase of 403% for the rich or $21 million dollars (think campaign contributors & corporations-those oligarchs who really control our government). I guess we should continue to provide more tax cuts to the rich. Right? Congress sucks!
