Income inequality propaganda exposed.
The Left and Occupiers make great complaint about the unequal distribution of income in the U.S. No doubt it exists, but there is more to it than meets the eye. Our progressive income tax was intended to make the wealthy pay more, but a multitude of exemptions, deductions, credits, etc. tend to defeat this. Perhaps this is where reform should come. However, the Left wants more, actual income equality (a form of "social justice"). As usual Thomas Sowell points out the sloppy thinking (if not propaganda) of the income equality position.
