Here’s the thing. It looks like a political cartoon, but it’s real. The slices of the pizza are exactly mathematically proportional to reality. We are being screwed every single day by rich oligarchs. And we know it. It’s time to fundamentally change the […] [Original post on shakedown.social]
A pizza representing our economy is sitting on the table. A rich white guy labeled “Top 1%” gets a slice that looks to be about 85% of the pie. A white lady labeled “Merely wealthy” gets a slice that looks to be 13% or so. A black lady labeled “upper middle class” has a slice that’s about 2%. A frowning guy labeled “lower 50%” has a few crumbs on the table, not even a slice.

The captions say: 
How America’s economic pizza is sliced per capita. This is not a joke.
