That's not quite it.

Then thr 0.1% gets all the money, and the failing rich blame themselves for not being clever enough.

Then the 0.01% get all the money and fly around in golden zeppelins

And then the 0.001% gets all the money, and our elected officials tell us that if we charge them with crimes, the whole economy will collapse.

Now eight guys own more than half the population and we're feeling lean and hungry.
