The top 20% controlled 85% of the wealth is only a little unbalanced? And that's only from 2004, before Bush/Obama started giving billion dollar bail outs and the tax cut shifted those figures even more than they already had. The divide between classes has been getting bigger and bigger since the mid-seventies. It's not really arguable nor is the inequality, seeing as the United States has one of the biggest wealth gaps of all the industrialized nations.
