The Rand Corporation did a study and they found that within the last fifty years - fifty trillion dollars (fifty trillion) was transferred from the bottom ninety percent of the population to the top one percent of the population. / In the fifties and sixties there were no bank bail- outs. Starting with president Reagan and financial deregulation, the financial crashes and the subsequent bailouts by the bottom ninety percent, began. Corporations including banks took control of the Government and turned it against the average US citizen. The average wage earner today receives compensation equal to compensation of the decade of the seventies, this if anything is criminal. Meanwhile CEO wages increased by 1,460%, hence we find ourselves in the middle of class warfare instituted by the one percent and made possible by the sycophants in the US Congress. There are basically three reasons behind this warfare, they are in order "stupidity, ignorance and greed, you have to be stupid and ignorant to be greedy.
