The Self Destruction Of The Top 1%

This article compares what is happening today in America to what has happened in other countries that have blocked social mobility.  It may be intended as a warning to the to 01% but most could care less.  They are citizens of the world and they can enjoy the good life wherever they choose to reside. It should be a warning, however, to those who do not have the luxury of place.  Some of them should be concerned about the welfare of their children and grandchildren.  Unfortunately, many believe that they will be at the top of the pile with a little luck.  They are the ones who buy lottery tickets, and who share the values of those who block their path to the top.
