- 40 years ago we started down this shitty path because the owner class (and the idiot economists in their pocket) were worried about "crowding out", so we had to slash government programs and deregulate finance. And now finance has crowded out all of the actually-productive investment activity! :/

- Reposted by Raigan BurnsThe way I always wrap my head around this kind of thing: the median household net worth in the United States is $193,000; the median household size is 2.6 people.
