This book is the black and white version of the same title. The Occupy Wall Street movement accused the Top 1% of the population, of many serious wrong doings and greed. The Top 1% is accused of not paying their dues, taking more than they supposed to from the rest of the population and ignorantly leave everyone to suffer. What are the truths? In their usual style, the authors jumped right in, without any prejudice and biasness, in unearthing the real truth. The authors analyzed income and wealth data from reliable sources, compared them to the Occupiers own data and spotted differences, things that were never mentioned and probably be left behind for a purpose. Find out for yourself, whether it is true, that the rich is getting richer while the poor is getting poorer, or is it a complete lie. The authors will show how successful America had become, and they will reveal the real situation to lift your spirit up. This book is a spin-off of the extensive and very animatic book series "259 Trillion Vs 5 Trillion" which is nearing its final book release. In this book, you will find unusual but remarkable explanations never before mentioned by any economist. Below are some of the topics presented: STATISTICAL PERPLEXITY OF USING "TOP-1%" AND "BOTTOM-99%" IMAGINARY LINES ILLOGICALITY OF RICH GETTING RICHER AND POOR GETTING POORER THE TOP 1% IS A DYNAMIC PLACE (SO IS THE BOTTOM 99%) CLASSES WITHIN CLASS WHY CURRENT COMPARISON METHODS ARE VERY ERRONEOUS BEST WAY TO COMPARE INCOME HIDDEN STATISTICS BIGGEST CONTRIBUTOR TO TAXES WHY THE BOTTOM MOST CLASS INCOME EARNERS IN THE IRS DATA MAY BE RICHER THAN WE THINK CONUNDRUM THAT ISN'T RICH ARE GETTING RICHER, WHILE THE POOR ARE GETTING POORER FALLACY THE BOTTOM 99% IS CONTROLLING MORE WEALTH TODAY THAN EVER BEFORE ANSWERING THE ACCUSATION OF HIGH CEO PAY CAPITALISM IS MORE EQUITABLE THAN THE OLYMPICS SOCIETY'S 80:20 RULE THE RISK TAKERS HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF OCCUPY AMERICA NOW OWS AND NAZI-WHAT DO THEY HAVE IN COMMON? CAN WE TAKE THE WEALTH OF THE TOP 1%? OCCUPY WALL STREET IS NOT THE LEGITIMATE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE BOTTOM 99% THE BOTTOM CLAIMS OF NO SAY IN THE GOVERNMENT OTHER ILLOGICAL DEMANDS They studied various sources of data extensively and crosschecked with other databases, and as a result, they are confident that their data is as accurate as it can be. One of their secrets of data analysis is that they crosschecked published studies multiple times from multiple angles. The results are astonishing. They can reveal the real truth, the real explanations as to why something is the way it is and with the extensive analysis conducted, there won't be any other explanation or possibility left to argue. This is the crux of their many presentations and findings. Of course, such in depth and thorough analyses from many different angles are very time consuming. But the truth must be told.
