What if higher inequality in advanced economies and a higher standard of living for the lower and middle classes were caused by the same thing? Is rising inequality necessarily a problem then?

ETA: meant to respond to OP not TK.

And everyone knows who is targeted with this wealth inequality meme. White men. I don't see any liberal pussies bitching about how much money Kobe Bryant makes, and why professional sports or movie stars aren't targeted for more taxation or penalties. But if some business owner makes a dime, the left demands they have it simply for the fact that they were too chicken shite to earn a living for themselves.

This is an age old problem, and it has an age old response.

There is only one of two ways to fix the problem -

Bring the top down or the bottom up. The former is socialism/communism, and the latter is capitalism. I know which one I would pick every day of the week.
