This Vice News story
covering some of the latest critiques of Thomas Pikkety’s Capital in the
Twenty-First Century (e.g., most of the recent rise in wealth inequality
is due to rising home prices) and asking whether we should raise taxes on the
rich is interesting, but not quite as interesting as the accompanying photo,
part of which is shown below.
 
All the recent police shootings combined with the American obesity
epidemic and the ongoing bull market in just about every asset class all kind
of come together in this photo in a way that doesn’t make you feel
particularly good about living in the U.S. in 2015.
