It turns out that wealth inequality isn‘t about the 1 percent v. the 99 percent at all.

Long-story-short is that this group, comprised mostly of bankers and CEOs, is riding the stock market to pick up extraordinary investment income. And it‘s this investment income, rather than ordinary earned income, that‘s creating this extraordinary wealth gap.
