Steve or anyone else, can you take a look at this article from USA Today:

usatoday.com

... and see how the article came to this conclusion based on the chart provided in the link:

The difference in median net wealth between the 10% of families with the highest incomes and the 20% of families with the lowest incomes jumped 70% from 1998 through 2001, the Fed said in its consumer finances report, which it conducts every three years. The gap between whites and minorities grew 21%.

I don't see where the gap between rich and poor grew by 70%, nor do I see where the gap between white and black grew by 21%. Is this yet another liberal push piece by the media, or am I missing something?
