there's been a trillion dollar income shift from the bottom to the top via loss of overtime ,increased co-pays and medical costs,shifts from full to part-time work etc...the bottom 90% of income earners have seen their wages stagnate or decline in the last 8 years while the top 400 families have seen their wealth increase by 1.4 trillion dollars...the top 1 percent now make as much as the bottom 95%...as bad as it was during the Gilded Age...the taking's been going the wrong way for some time....
