What does this graph mean to you?

The chart shows the share of the richest 10 percent of the American population in total income – an indicator that closely tracks many other measures of economic inequality – over the past 90 years, as estimated by the economists Thomas Piketty and Emmanuel Saez.

This is from here

To me it suggests that the middle class is disappering. I'm not an economist so I'd be interested to see what others have to say.

not sure what it means to me. I have nothing to compare it to, although it obviously reads that the separation between middle class and the rich is widening, which is the exact opposite direction that would be of interest to the "majority" in every definition of the word.

I don't doubt that it's the middle class going away..

but don't blame the rich. If you're poor.. pick up a damn book and learn something so you can make a little more money
