    It’d be interesting to see this in adjusted real values (ideally asset classes of your choice) rather than proportional percentiles.

    It’s one thing if everyone is being lifted up because of efficiency improvements in energy, distribution, etc.

    It’s quite another of the top percentiles are engaged in rent seeking and pushing everyone down in the process..
