Charts 'o the day

Shhh. Don't mention any of this in public or you will be accused of waging class warfare. But take a look at these charts.

Perhaps the most startling thing about this series of charts is that they are being featured at Business Insider:
The rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. Cliché, sure, but it's also more true than at any time since the Gilded Age.

If you're in that top 1%, life is grand.

That sounds suspiciously like class treason to me.
