Whoda thunk there’d be so many Lucky Duckies in a society where 1% of the people have about 35% of the net worth and the bottom 80% have about 15% (or about 43% of the financial wealth vs. 7%)?

It would be nice to think of we low income types as Lucky Duckies. It seems we are more in the Unlucky Ducky category. But at least we don’t have to go to the trouble of stashing our income off shore in a tax shelter like a certain unnamed Presidential candidate.

But I do get the point of the strip…really I do…please don’t beat me up!
