According to 'The Spirit Level' and my reading of Marx, when the proles know that they are proles they are much more likely to keep the 80/20 rule and the Gini Coefficient well below the current US 85/20 anxiety factory. I believe but cannot prove that when 80% of the people share 15% of the wealth the proles brew tea.
Having said that, I was told that the acres of shiny new condos in Xing Dao that I saw in 2006 were being built by tens of thousands of men with shovels for the hundreds of goverment officials from Bejing. But having said 'having said that' I take it all back if I need to and make this point.
