I have been having this argument for a few years now with my father... and I contend it will need to get A LOT WORSE until Americans wake up and realize they are being fleeced. That means that the current generation of 50-90 year olds are totally screwed... BUT THEY VOTED for this! It's the next generation that will see the light and rise up against the corporate control of everything.
Redistribution of wealth can happen in an instant... a total revolution can make that happen. I predict in 10 years from now there will be about 1000 multi-billionaires, that control everything. But 1000 people is a small number... they literally could be all murdered in a global revolution and all the wealth and power just goes back into circulation.
Americans, in particular, are stupid. We buy into the dream that everyone could get super rich - so they continually vote against their own best interests.
It's going to take 30% unemployment, with it hovering around 50-60% unemployment for 18-30 year olds... that will signal the start of the Revolution. We are almost there in Europe now... but America control the world's economy.. the Revolution will start in the United States, and I predict it will be real ugly.
The rich can't hide from the masses... and there are just too many weapons in the hands of the poor. It's the natural progression of survival, people will kill for food and water. But for now, the American Sheeple are distracted by television shows like the Housewives of I Don't Give A Fuck.
