    We’re not talking just “wealthy”, we’re talking the top 1% of all income.

    Most Americans would probably say people making $100k/yr are “wealthy”. That’s because the average income is less than $40k. There’s a difference between just “wealthy” and the top 1% for most people.

      Even then, that depends a lot on where you live. $100k/year in California is a lot different than $100k/year in Mississippi.
