A 'Plutocrat' speaks out against Income Inequality

Nick Hannauer writing in Politico: "No society can sustain this kind of rising inequality. In fact, there is no example in human history where wealth accumulated like this and the pitchforks didn’t eventually come out. You show me a highly unequal society, and I will show you a police state. Or an uprising. There are no counterexamples. None. It’s not if, it’s when."


The writer, an investment capitalist, was banned at TED talks conference for speaking out on why " the rich don't create jobs. "  http://bit.ly/1lujM4W
