Let's Get Real

Most people have a lot of trouble wrapping their minds around big numbers and the chunk of the wealth in America that the 1% is hanging on to is literally off the charts...



It's a good visual aid for just how out of whack the distribution of wealth is in the US these days and just how hard it is to actually understand and grapple with.  The 1% seems and sounds like it should be a mythic straw man that the rest of us are railing against, only it's a very real problem.

This video was all over of late, if you hadn't seen it yet I hope you take the time to watch it and share it now.
