Z, > He said "average." It's top-loaded.

He didn't even say "average," but I took the average just to illustrate what you can do with statistics. You can spin the numbers any way you want.

If you want to use the median instead, let's say the median family of four is sitting on $30K. What do you want to do, force them to spend it?

How about a rich family who is sitting on two million dollars worth of assets and equity. What do you want to do, come up with a wealth tax? They'll move their wealth into tax-free shelters. Just like Bill Gates and Warren Buffett. (Then they'll pretend that they aren't paying enough taxes, just like you do.)
