re: Nice opinion piece on income inequality from CNN

It turns out that increasing numbers of Americans in the 1%, .1% and .01% have done little to "earn" their wealth or privilege.

So passing your hard-earned wealth to your children is now bad? What?

I believe you need to make about $390k per year to be in the top 1% of wage earners. Go find someone in your town who makes $390k a year and follow them around for a few weeks (let them know first). And then see if you'd like to try to emulate their work habits.
