America's wealth pyramid is reshaping fast. Households pulling in $150K+ now represent 34% of the total—a 29-point jump from 1965. Meanwhile? The middle class shrunk to just 45%. That's an 11-point drop. The gap keeps widening, and it's rewriting who has money to deploy into markets.

The wealth gap has become so large that middle-class collapse is inevitable... Capital still has to keep competing.

A jump of 29 points... The wealth gap really isn't joking around.

The growing wealth gap is really causing the middle class to become extinct.

I'm tired of it already; the gap between the rich and the poor is becoming more and more outrageous. The middle class has been cut in half directly, truly astonishing.
