Gawd, I think that's the thing that pisses me off the most about these people who make their living in politics. Spoiled, overpaid and vastly ignorant, their words are broadcast to millions every day.

The 1% percenters telling the other 99% how things should be,pisses me right off. Who are the only 'non-essential' workers in the US?? CEOs...and shareholders...
Maybe you should increase that benchmark a bit, it doesn’t seem to me to be that difficult to be a millionaire. I’m just a retired RN & I have a million via saving, opening an IRA way back when & then participating in the 491K Plan at the hospital I worked at; & investing those savings plans in the stock market.
Too many people are not taught anything about managing their finances, they spend way too much on crap they don’t need & that are actually detrimental to their health.
That’s a huge failure of our schools.
People who can’t afford to rent a decent home will walk in a Walmart & pay an exhorbitant price for a fancy tall bottle of Smart Water, or PowerAid drink, it’s absurd.
I don’t mean to imply that there isn’t horrible inequity in this country, there absolutely is; but there’s also a lot of ignorance about how to spend & save money. Most people in this country are so wasteful it’s just appalling to me. The majority, male or female, don’t have a sewing machine or know how to use one to even repair a tiny rip in a blouse or how to hem a skirt or pair of pants that are too long.
I have pulled perfectly good clothing, comforters, storage containers, etc etc out of the garbage dumpster in front my house.

The average CEO pay compared to an average worker is 479% in the US, about 100 times higher than any countries in the world.(Thank you Robert Reich)
That's why they think average annual income in the US is over $100k per year.
