    The “market” is doing a notoriously great job at distributing wealth right now. How much money do the 1% have now?

      Well, unfortunately, lots of people like to complain about what the market does while simultaneously encouraging it to do it with their wallets/purses. For instance, they say the market should give female athletes more money while simultaneously not buying their cards, jerseys, or going to their events. For another example, they give the 1% lots of money daily for things they absolutely don’t need while simultaneously complaining about how the 1% end up with all the money. Can’t have it both ways. If you shovel sand into your mouth, you’re gonna hafta deal with a mouth full of sand, unfortunately.
