Kasparian and Uygur discuss the study below. Conclusion: The American dream is a myth. And it's getting worse under the Dumpsters. The UN report then said this (around 5:00):
"There's been a systemic effort by conservatives to stigmatize and legitimize what Americans call welfare--the notion that anyone who is receiving money from the government is shameful and offensive. Yet the rich receive vastly more money from the government and that's not considered shameful."
To wit, the latest example being the tax welfare giveaway. Almost all of it went to the top with a few crumbs for the rest of us. They used most of that money for stock buybacks, thereby increasing their own wealth and politically corrupt power even further.
