So, I worked 3 jobs and put myself through college. Worked my butt off in corporate America and at 54 I have a house and money in the bank. Conversely, "Jimmy" chooses to drink beer and smoke pot while working at the grocery store. At 54 he still lives with is parents and lives paycheck to paycheck.

Income inequality? More like ambition and drive inequality.

Can we see what the pay rates of all the WH black staffers are compared to 2007 and back. Just curious but I’m pretty sure what the results will reveal....

Yes, by dragging middle income households down, “inequality” has been lowered.

Gee, a few months ago “income inequality” was a rallying cry.

More unemployment for all is not lower income inequality.

It is spreading the pain more equally.

A level playing field is often called a graveyard!

I dare these clowns to walk around the “bad” areas of Washington DC at midnight.

I dare them.

But the chocolate rations have been increased from 10 grams to 5 grams...so we’ve got that going for us!

I cannot WAIT until this POS grifter is GONE!

As I understand it, they’ve got this minimizing income inequality thing down pat in Venezuela - nobody except the Politburo has enough money to eat regularly.

Hello!

I have a bridge in Brooklyn I’m willing to sell, cheap.

Wonderful income opportunity for the right person.

Lower inequality? Just do not work and not pay taxes. That will help the economy.
