The highest wealth accumulation......

I find it interesting that the most popular entertainers have incomes that should incite envy among the small business people who provide our material comforts. There's certainly value in being amused, but are their prospects enhanced by unusually favorable treatment in the tax code?

Nah!

Legislators certainly wouldn't whore themselves out for cash contributions and support from those with the biggest megaphones.

Would they?

"highest wealth accumulation"

That means that just a FEW people sock away MOST of the money.

Check out the median incomes in those states and the level of education and healthcare.

Judging states by 5% of their population seems rather UNAmerican.....
