WHO ARE THE 1% SUPER RICH?

Below is the link to a chart that shows the percent of household in the 1% top income jobs.  As shown, as the numbers increases, those occupying the top income decreases in number.


PARTIALLY summarized, here is the ranking top 1% of the people in their respective jobs as:


1. Physicians in private practice.................97,958 people in household are in the top 1%; ..... 27.2% of the 360,785 in this job are in the top 1%


2. Dentists with offices and clinics............25,647 people in household are in the top 1%; .... 15.3% of the 167,140 in this job are in the top 1%


3. Lawyers in legal services....................113,280 people in household are in the top 1%; .....14.6% of the 774,794 in this job are in t he top1%


4. Lawyers in other industries (government and businesses)

23,939 people in household are in the top 1%;......12.1% of the 198,597 in this job are in the top 1%



5. Financial Services in Sales Occupation, security ... 27,702................................................15.3% of 167,140


Adding up the number of people in the top 5 listed jobs it is about 1,708,456 in contrast to 10,000,000 in just 5 of the low paying jobs such as service providers in service industries...one can see the wide gap in the increasing number of poor Americans and fewer getting rich Americans. The middleclass is disappearing. If you are still eating on time but this government stop its funding for a better education for our children, soon, your next generations are likely to miss meals on time. If safety nets for senior citizens and the sick are dismantled, soon more businesses will close for lack of customers who can afford to spend any income in their stores and restaurants. Meanwhile it will be common to see people around us dying without getting any medical help...they will get into hospital when it is too late and they will just lie there and they will die there. Without good dedicated and qualified teachers increasing numbers of children will be dropping out of schools before learning how to read and write and get into the streets without employable skills. Soon there will be a need to increase prison facilities and crime will increase for lack of police to enforce laws. With this trend unchecked....how far is America from becoming like the undeveloped 3rd world country? The "wannabees" will get fiercer in their effort to climb the ladder by increasing the cost of their services such as those in the insurance industries, in the health and drug industries, in the legal systems, those in the real estate businesses...increase the pays of those who control the payroll policies while lowering the salaries for their workers such as clerks and services providers at the bottom rank. And for the few with products that people cannot live without, there will an increase in their prices and cost.

At the bottom are:


SOCIAL SERVICES PROVIDERS.............. PASTORS, TEACHERS, FIREMEN, PYSYCHOLOGIST, SOCIAL WORKERS, NURSES, COOKS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, CLERKS, BUREAUCRATS, ETC.....DOWN TO 0.2%


Out of millions of workers in these jobs only about 0.2 to 0.3% are in the top 1% top of money earners (their managers and administrators). In stark opposite, out of 200,000 to 400,000 jobs in the top paying jobs above, 15% to 27% are in houseld in the top 1% money earners.
