The infographic says it all. If you are in the 99%, you made a whole $80 more per capita last year than the year 2010!

Congratz!

Between my wife and I, we made $8g less, lol.

Yet, I'm still the 1%! (of the world), so life's not that bad.

I made 5%ish more...wife made 20%ish more and was off for a couple months with the baby...I'm ok with whatever that means on that graph. The $80 a year increase is probably because minimum wage jobs keep being minimum wage.

According to Sherman, I'm the 10% and he wants to tax the shit out of me.

Me too. Raising taxes in Alberta? Is this guy serious?
