one of the conclusions of this paper, which is the basis for the stub i posted earlier about conservative fictions around questions of wealth & its distribution, is that most people support the political worldviews they do because they are able to imagine that will bring us, collectively, to a **more** equitable distribution of wealth, far more equitable than is presently the case in the united states where the top 1% of the population controls over 50% of the wealth.

so there's obviously been ALOT of disinformation around concerning the realities of class stratification in the u.s..

qui bono?
kinda makes you wonder, don't it?
