The real division is labor vs. capital, but for historical reasons its impossible to use that distinction in those terms in public discourse in the US, so you get 99% vs. 1%, Main Street vs. Wall Street, and all kinds of other terms that talk around the real issue.
Interesting. So you're saying that it boils down to being branded as a communist because of the history of the US.
I'm Canadian, so the irrational fear of communism/socialism is much lower here.
Not that I'm advocating for communism of course. Any system that honestly believes that a dictatorship[1] needs to be established first and that it will simply "whither away"[2] has been proven by history to be wrong.
I think it's really the 99.9%.
Being in the 1% top income in the country kind of rings hollow if you still can't afford a house.
