  I've seen this before,,on like a Rachel Maddow broadcast or something, but this one is explained in a way where even the most stupid of people can understand.
  
  Note however, cuz he doesn't make it clear, there IS difference between income and wealth. You can make $100k a year,,but if you blow it on healthcare, rent, and student loans, your wealth can still be nothing.

  For all those who 'think' China are Cuba are communist,,,they have about the same amount of income inequality as the United States.
  Authoritarian, not free,,,,maybe. but not communist
  
  That said,,as a young person, gradauting from college,,with more than enough degrees, I'm moving to Australia to persue ,,the American Dream

  This is true. And the visa requirements are insane for Australia.

  $100K a year won't get you very far in Australia, not experienced direct racism per se - but racial inequality...yes.

  Wealth inequality will always exist. It's a fact of life. People with high education levels and unique and/or specialized skills should be paid more money than those who don't. It's simple supply and demand.

  Rent-seeking behaviors are currently being far more disproportionately rewarded than real economic activity. This means underproduction of necessary goods, overproduction of less necessary goods, at market-inefficient prices.

  That is a load of crap
  
  Australia is probably the best multicultural society on the planet with incredibly strict anti racist and anti discrimination laws that are acted upon if broken
  
  Also no one is thrown on the scrap heap if they get sick or become unemployed
  
  I know where I'd rather live

  China and Cuba are communistic countries, despite what you think you learned. But what does that have to do with "income inequality"?
  
  Good luck, don't let the screen door hit your ass on your way out of America!
  (Not even going to ponder how you can 'persue {sic},, the American dream' in another country)
  But I can tell by your appalling grammar, punctuation and spelling that Australia won't be letting you move there, since you don't have any special skill to offer them.
  Besides trolling.

  America is better than the UK in terms of race-relations so don't be so quick to slander

  Wealth inequality is not a problem in the US. People who are poor and live off food stamps, etc. have similar chances and abilities as those who go to prep schools and ivy league colleges that get great jobs. The difference is also the work ethic. People who are poor tend not to work as hard. Obama just needs a kick in his socialist ass!

  The video mainly talks about TOP 1% (CEOs, celebrities, etc) v.s. everybody else.
  People you are talking about not there.

  The only reason they call it that is because you'd have to be asleep (or dead) to believe that bullshit.

  You have the gift of compressing the least amount of thought into the most amount of words.
