I don't think those are quite the right ratios (anybody have the right numbers?) but the truly scary part is that over the **8 years** that Bonzo's co-star occupied the Oval Office the numbers went from (something like): 40% of people control 80% of the wealth to (something like): 20% of people control 80% of the wealth 8 years! That's an astounding accomplishment! :-( But at least it gives ``the Chin that Walks'' something to aspire to :-( :-( -- ../Dave Cynic? Me?
