> All the stats and models shows that white collar class will get poorer, EVERYBODY ELSE will get richer. Would you mind sharing a source for that? I can't think of a mechanism that would make sure that the poor get richer. Intuitively I would expect a continuation or acceleration of the current trend, i.e. concentration of wealth at the very top (billionaires). | ||
