How about “coexist”?
The problem is not inequality the problem is lack of movement in the economy. The more the upper tier flex their spending power the greater the opportunity for others to move up the “economic ladder”. There are no incentives in place to get the truly wealthy to use their money in ways that create new opportunities for everyone else.
Private jet sales are looking good, despite Obama’s efforts to trash them. (well actually he only trashed private jets flown by Republicans...)

Would love to see a % breakdown of D vs R for each city added to the chart. Maybe use 2012 general election results.
Those who complain about “inequality” never mention how much Oprah or Mick Jagger earn or how little their stage help is paid. Nor do they complain that Matt McGloin, the quarterback for the Los Angeles Raiders has a $108 million contract while one of his team’s cheerleaders just sued the team over her pay of $5 per hour. It is hardly news that over 40 university presidents have pay packages that exceed $1 million, or that the heads of 11 charities in the US are paid over $1 million while their volunteers are asked to donate their time and money.
So who exactly has the income that is proof of “inequality”? Times up: Apart from just railing against “the wealthy” as a nebulous group that excludes all rich liberals, they only complain about business leaders who earn a lot of money. Now why would that be?
“Income inequality” joins Peak Oil and Global Warming as frauds of the left that are really aimed at advancing ideological agendas rather than advancing prosperity and liberty.
Liberals are only interested in the liberty and prosperity they can coerce from others.
How about “coexist”?
...yeppers. “Free Tibet”. “Go Green”. “Buy Fresh, Buy Local”. All are bumper stickers that describe a liberal behind the wheel.
Why would this be so hard to understand?
Liberals usually are the largest population section of any urban area.
EXACTLY!
