[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not mentioned in the Atlantic article is where the new aristocracy live. They most likely live in New York City and San Francisco and surrounding areas. You don't have to be a multimillionaire or part of the 9% to live a great life in other regions of the country. Are people in Kansas City or Minneapolis as obsessed with income inequality? No, because there aren't these starck differences and classes. The top 9% in the coastal cities have to keep their place because the alternative to falling lower on the rung is living in a much less desirable part of town. They have such stressful lives, they need to pay extra for help. They don't have family or community nearby to help them. They need a second vacation home at Martha's Vineyard to network to keep their business contacts. They are always working and always on. [/quote] This will work for the Whites. Browns and Asians - no way. We have to be in the top 10% to get the life we want.[/quote]
