This smug bastard would read far better from the end of a rope.
He’s got a lot of interesting facts and a lot of wrong conclusions.
For one thing, he may be in the 10%, or even in the top few percent, but he’s completely guilt ridden. There was wealth and success in prior generations of his family, some of it wasted. And, he’s rather shallow about his own conduct. “Should I hire an expensive college fixer and tutor for my high school daughter?”
He laments inequality in our society, which has been growing, although it fluctuates over the years. But, his prescription is equality of financial results through high taxes. He resents his ancestors.
Those of us who came from humbler origins and worked and saved our way to a pretty good position suffer from far less guilt.
