Yeah, close to 6% of the population is making unfathomable amounts of money and the crazy thing is that just 6% of the population is still 20 Million people. You could replace the entire population of Tokyo with American millionaires and still have more to spare to claim New York too.
Yeah but the tokyo metro area is an insanely large sprawl only rivaled by the tristate area of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut.
I kinda meant just the dense city lines of both which is still an insane amount.
That entire tristate area is also 20 million people so its more people than that that are wealthy enough to think the empire as a truly good thing.
True but I think the rich are about 10% so I think that’s number should be closer to like 30-35m
Either way, US has a mega city or canada sized country of pure high income and or asset owner.
These people are true benefecies of the empire. They essentially enforce regime orthodoxy on political level while providing their professional services to the owner class. For this they are permitted to thrive, while the rest of working class is being driven into more poverty with each generation.
