Here's how it works, sug: income inequality increases during good times, decreases during bad times. The rich take profits when there are profits, and when there are no profits, they don't, you follow?
These studies end in 2005? Take it to 2008 and the numbers will be completely different.
And the rich people you hate so well all have 401ks and other retirement investments... all cut in half when the bubble popped. The poor, meanwhile did not have so many such things. So don't worry your li'l haid off about this issue. The bust solved it for you.
