I’d argue that no country can truly be called ‘rich’ if it fails to provide basic, affordable healthcare and social security, let alone if it leaves families with hungry children unfed.

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%. 

That’s $80 trillion that would have gone into the paychecks of the working class.
