According to the US Census Bureau:

Quote:
From 2000 to 2007, workers at the 20th percentile saw a 6.0% decline in income, followed in 2008 by a further decline of 1.7%. Workers at the 95th percentile saw an increase of 1.2 percent from 2000 to 2007, but a decrease of 2.1% in 2008

So, the upper income bracket is still much better off over all. Let them eat cake.
