The Likes of Obama and his Fascists friends have been attacking capitalism for many years, by turning one class of citizens against another.  This relentless class warfare attack has enabled them to finally gain control of every aspect of the government but the Supreme Court.  Thanks to their allies in the public school system, they have been able to convince the majority of Americans to now look down upon those who have prospered due to hard work and perseverance. Sometimes I think I must be living in an alternative universe where evil is good and good is evil. 
    
The American public has been so indoctrinated by the left that most are clueless about the fact that their retirement, and life insurance policies are tied into the stock market.  So when the Democrats handed Obama a victory in his ongoing attack on capitalism by imposing sweeping new regulations on Wall Street, few Americans realize that King Obama has just dealt their retirement plans a deathblow.  Now, instead of looking forward to leisure strolls along the beaches of some Caribbean island during a stop from a cruise, they are going to be rudely awakened to the reality that all their hard work and perseverance has been wasted.  They will soon become just another segment of society that is completely dependent upon the government.  
  
With the help of their friends in the MSM, the Obama administration has been doing all they can to convince you and me that capitalism has failed, and the proof they claim is in the way the middle class has lost ground to the ultra rich in the last 50 years.  The latest propaganda tool of the Obama administration is none other then Business Insider which ran an article with an accompanying graph they titled, "22 Statistics That Prove The Middle Class Is Being Systematically Wiped Out Of Existence In America". Thanks to our education system most Americans will look at the graph, read the article, and come away with the idea that the rich own most of the stocks and so it's a good thing that the Democrats and Obama have finally reigned in those greedy rich SOBs on Wall Street.  However, if you look closely at the graph they use, you will see some startling information. 
  
To begin with, they use their chart to convince us that 83 percent of all U.S. stocks are in the hands of 1% of the people.  What they don't tell you is that most of that 83% of stocks are owned by pension, mutual, and other funds which represent millions of Americans who's policies are based upon the prosperity of these various funds.  The left is counting on the fact that the millions of normal everyday Americans, who have no clue they own shares of stocks, will continue to be clueless.
   
Another interesting aspect of their chart points out that every segment of society has steadily improved their share of ownership by a minimum of 380% by the top 9.0% category.  The middle class category or 20% has expanded their share of wealth in stocks by an astounding 1296%, the bottom 4% had their Wealth increase by over 450%. In the same period of time, the ultra rich only gained 36% more share of the wealth.  Let that sink in for a moment, from 1962 until 2001, the poor multiplied their wealth by an astounding 450% while the ultra rich only increased their share of the wealthy by 24.9%.  Looking at the way the left justifies an increase in government spending due to the inequality of the rate increases from year to year, It is safe to say that the rich has gotten poorer and poor has gotten richer. 
  
Probably the most interesting aspect of their graph is what it says about the Socialists belief that capitalism creates winners and losers.  Or as Obama and his ilk claim, the economy is an unfair "zero sum game", and that is why they need to redistribute the wealth. Only problem is, the graph they use to justify the inequality of capitalism actually proves the opposite.  Looking at the graph you will notice that each and every income bracket from the poor all the way to the ultra rich, have gained in their share of the stock market and wealth, from where they began in 1962.  So where are the losers of life's lottery then? Well, stick around and you will begin seeing them as the new regulations designed to destroy Wall Street begin to take hold. 
      
Sadly, many Americans have bought into the lies that it is only rich Wall Street investors who are going to be affected by these new regulations.  Well it's time for Main Street to wake up and realize that the true target of Obama's wrath is them, the middle class.  It has taken almost a hundred years, but the communists learned in the early 1900's that the only way they can destroy America is to destroy the middle class. In the process they will gladly destroy the poor who have realized the greatest advancement in prosperity the world has ever seen, a prosperity that has outpaced that of the ultra rich by over 400% since 1962. All the while the left has convinced the economically ignorant Americans that they are only making the rich pay their fair share.
