"Recent studies from the Pew Research Center show that the wealth disparity in the United States is becoming greater. The middle class is showing a shrinking trend, and the structure of American society is at a turning point. The study showed that from 1971 to 2006, American families with mid-level income have reduced from 61 percent to 49.9 percent. At the same time, low income households have increased from 25 percent to 29 percent, and high income households have increased from 14 percent to 21 percent. As a whole, society is trending toward a major split ".
“As a whole, society is trending toward a major split.” I recall
that Karl Marx of” Das Kapital ” fame reported this trend in the middle
of the 19th century. Google this question : ” Was Marx right ? ” And
like me be pleasantly surprised .
