For those who don't understand the implication of that graph... it is a paradigm in which the rich are gaining wealth at almost twice the rate of those in the lower income bracket. The fact that our economy is in such a shambles proves that Supply Side (trickle down) economics does not work to build jobs or increase economic opportunity for the working class... all it does is siphon the wealth into the pockets of the rich. That is pure capitalism... right? It is the flaw of capitalism... because as the rich gain more wealth their consumer base is eroded. Eventually they won't have any more consumers... why do you think they are trying to globalize the economy? To gain more consumers.... because they are already seeing the economic strain in the domestic economy.
