How much of this is driven by technology rather than policy? 1980, you have a computer, good for you, that's nice. 2005, you have a tech company, boom, you're a billionaire and you're putting ten different types of industries half out of business across the world.

They're having a hard time right now. Once trump cuts those taxes though and they create more jobs it'll trickle down.

hard work being born into a rich family :whew:

Let's wait and hear some anecdotes from outliers. @Alpha Male

Sorry, I don't resent rich people. It's a sin to envy.

However I do resent crony capitalism and the crooked govt officials (both D and R) that make it possible.

It is curious that they would leave out Asians. Are they not an ethnic minority?

The current U.S. population is less than 6% Asian. That's less than blacks and latinos. They also have the least representation in government by far.

And yet in spite of this, Asian families have the highest median income of anyone in this country.

Because Asian is a very broad term.
