The US is ranked #6 in the world for extreme income inequality. That's right. You can literally count on one hand the countries that do it worse than us.

You want to know why one of the wealthiest countries in the world (when looked at in aggregate) is disintegrating before our very eyes? That's the reason.

@hosford42 If you look at just the bottom 50%, it looks like the US is second only to Poland, and they're both well ahead of the rest of the pack.
