On the other hand it might be that the wealth capture by the rich has happened primarily because technology is steadily removing the need and value of human workers, which would be the first time that technology did this, and politicians of all stripes are relatively powerless to do anything about it because of the ease of product and wealth transfer.
As you know, Hawk...I have written extensively on this issue. Technology has made the value of human labor almost zero...and is primarily at fault.
That was not the focus of the picture and its caption.

I am not blaming them...and anyone who has read my essays about productivity and the decrease in value of human labor knows where I do put the blame.
But the picture was fun....at least for me.
