AG said that the overwhelming majority of stock is owned by the wealthiest 20% of the people in our country. I guess the other 80% don't mind having the purchasing power of their dollars cut so that the stock market can be propped up. While none of this is new or unique to our society or country we have raised separating people from their money to an art form. What was it that AG called fraud - theft? Clearly no part of our economy has derived greater benefit from technology than the process of separating the people from their money while providing nothing of value in return.
