I get the feeling that this narrative is being told on purpose. The "1%" gets penalized for this stuff and the ".1%" just works around it.

Eventually, the punishments meted out to the 1% creep down brackets to the middle class. My dad was furious when he was subjected to the amt the first time, "I worked hard all my life for this??"

Additionally, much of the middle class would be surprised by just how close to that "1%" they actually are. Especially when the discussion swings between net worth, gross income, and net income.
