Next time you want to frame the rich as evil or the problem for all ills in society remember this statistic. The wealthiest 1.4 percent of Americans are responsible for 86 percent of all charitable donations.

@drdej555 Yes, I also agree monopolies are bad. Thats not the same however as saying rich people are bad. It is one exampleof how asshole rich people do bad things, but the asshole rich people are still a minority among rich people is the point.

By all means identify where capitalism fails or where rich-power hurts, its valid in many cases. But just dont frame it as a "rich people are evil" sort of thing is all.
