and you don't.

LMAO

Actually the syncronicity between Picketty's book regarding economic inequality and the Report to the President is down right ... scary.

I was reading the NEBR report, and then decided to open my copy of Picketty's book (ok the kindle version). There will be an article on this next week. I need to check some more data on this, but it is less a journalist, and more of a historian detecting a trend in language.

Let's just say, if this keeps up, I will have to conclude this inequality scares the powers that be.
