I only care about income inequality insofar as I'm on the right side of it.

It would appear that the full political spectrum was indicted by the study.

However, all you need to know about income inequality is to look at the stock market vs. job market.

Unfortunately the only solution to income inequality is to steal from your wealthy citizens.. a wealth tax.
but that is more unethical than income inequality itself.

I don't think this is true. Income inequality is occurring because the powerful are able to dictate the laws that distribute income. The wealthy have the power right now and as a result the income is distributed in a different way than it was pre Reagan.

There is a certain irony that conservatives are so against social programs. Social programs have allowed the middle class right wingers to focus on the 47%ers who are stealing the coins out of their front pocket while being completely oblivious to the 1%ers who are stealing the dollars out of their back pockets.

I guess you do not believe in civilization, since you believe tax is thief and tax is what births and fuels a civil society.
