Seriously, when are we going to draw the line? I do realize that this report includes developing economies, but still. When the gap widens that much, it's pretty clear that a small amount of people are doing a LOT better than the average person in the developed world, and that gap is widening in our part of the world as well. They are fighting for policies that benefit them, and we are totally drinking the Kool-Aid and either believing that those policies are for the greater good, or just doing nothing. When are we going to say "enough is enough"?
