And I think the biggest problem is that there are much more families that make less than 30,000/yr. I saw something on Wiki that said 92.7% of the overall wealth in the USA is made by 1% of the citizens. So there's an eliteist population out there that are filthy rich while the rest of us are slave labor at their mercy. Pro atheletes are a big chunk of those too!
