1. Could the top pyramiders create (by using the media, etc.) hate amongst the bottom 80% in the pyramid, to keep the attention off them?
2. Can those in the 80th percentile be so burdened with day to day life that issues like wealth and net income become second place to finding healthy food, transportation to work or school, proper education for their children, a safe place to live (issues that would not be of concern if you had wealth)?
