What, exactly, do you want to do about this problem? Raise taxes? Because when you do, those at the low end of the pay scale suffer far more than those at the upper end. Increase the minimum wage, which results in low-skilled employees becoming permanently unemployable (because their skills are not worth what they cost)? Just take from the wealthy and give it to the poor (which, of course, provides a disincentive for the most successful people among us, while providing incentive NOT TO WORK to the poor)? What exactly, do you want to do about this "problem"?
