The wealthiest 1% own over 40% of the nation’s wealth. This really stood out because it shows just how much of the country’s wealth is controlled by such a small group of people. It’s crazy to think that just 1% of Americans have control over more than 40% of all wealth. It shows how unfairly wealth is distributed and how difficult it can be for the average person to have the same opportunities or access to resources.

Living in a society that has huge wealth inequities creates a bigger gap between the rich and the poor, which leads to more tension and resentment. It makes it harder for lower-income people to get ahead.In cities, the wealthy are often able to live in nicer areas while the poor are forced to live in less desirable places, which affects their access to better schools, jobs, and healthcare.
