[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Income inequality" refers to household incomes. The biggest contributors to it are the vast increase in single-parent households at one end, and married dual-income households at the other end. The latter is further exacerbated by the tendency for potential high-earners to exclusively mate with other potential high-earners.[/quote]

No the biggest problem is that the top 10-20% are the only people seeing real wage growth.[/quote]

While somewhat true, that's a very minor factor compared to what I outlined. Additionally, your claim is a lot less true if you look at total compensation, including the employer share of health insurance, which has skyrocketed. You can't responsibly ignore that.[/quote]

People do though. Look, the point is, HRC is promising to raise taxes on the rich and her election is basically a done deal at this point. Where do you think the top rate should be set?[/quote]

I think it's high enough where it is. And I don't think Hillary has any real intention of raising it on people with taxable income less than say, 450k. And NOT just because of GOP opposition. The Democrats are too reliant on the UMC coastal elites to slam them with higher taxes.

I won't be voting for Hillary, btw.[/quote]
