Now that is wealth redistribution. Executive salaries have ballooned 256% since 1980 while workers salaries stagnated. Corporations replaced wages for workers with easy credit and loans. The middle class has become a debtor class. The wealthy and big business control Washington since they are now able to spend unlimited funds in elections thanks to the Supreme Court's Citizen United decision.
