How much of your country's wealth do that 1% own?

Joe - what does that matter?
The top 1% earned it one way or another
I really don't see what it matters
The USA is not a power to the people, fuck the man kind of place
It's a country where you really can achieve and those that achieve are rewarded
What does how much someone owns matter?
edit - p.s. this thread just shows Sharpton is way off base and top wage earners pay more than anyone else in taxes[/quote]
Now wait just a minute here ... "what does it matter?" is a much dumber question than I expect to see you post, Vick.
Let's ask the question a different way ... on what % of total income, or what percent of assets taxed do that 1% own that caused them to pay the 34%?
Intelligent discussion of the question WITHOUT that information is impossible.
