"Our political system and the very conservative ideology that says somehow the way to boost the economy is by reducing the taxes for the very wealthy, that system has increased enormously the inequalities in our society," said Pablo Eisenberg, senior fellow at Georgetown University's Public Policy Institute."

What he is really saying: we must use the liberal Marxist idea of "wealth redistribution" to make everyone live equal. Our government should have ZERO capability to determine the distribution of wealth. The market determines the distribution of wealth and the government should not undo what the market does by taxing wealth away from people and then redistributing it to others.
That is a form of Communism (i.e., the government determines how much wealth people should get to make and keep).

It's okay. With the 'Rats in charge, we'll all be equally poor!

You must have watched the Barney Frank and Bill O debate last night too.
Bill was stuck on 'income' redistribution and didn't get Franks "wealth" redistribution.

I agree with everyone's assessment about the 'rich' knowing how to acquire wealth and know what to do with it when they have it. Those that don't will ALWAYS be poor.
