Capitalism Today in America

Capitalism in America is clearly not working. As of today, the distribution of our nations money is outrageous. Did you know that one percent of the richest American's own 40% of all of America's money (54 trillion dollars to be exact). This is a huge problem in America today. I mean a CEO of a huge company that doesn't work nearly as hard as a lower class employee and probably earns more money in one hour that the average worker does in one month. How is this fair in any way? Sure, some CEO's work very hard to get where they are and I have nothing against that, however the amount of money that they make compared to the lower working class is obscene. If we as a nation are going to be equal and justified, we need to shorten this money gap significantly between the incomes of the lower and upper classes.
