29%. Middle class has shrank from 61% to 51%. Upper class has increased from 14% to 21%. Numbers rounded.

Share of aggregate income for middle class fell from 62% to 42%. Aggregate income for upper class rose from 29% to 50%.

The poor and middle class are being squeezed. The slice of the pie is growing smaller and smaller.

Meritocracy is BS.
