It all depends on how that 1% ends up running things, because, if we are honest it is they that do control most aspects of the country.

If the laws are still fair and everyone has an opportunity to get an education and better themselves then it really isn't a big deal.

However, when you look at third world shithole countries most of them have a few things in common, they have a huge separation of wealth, they have a very corrupt leadership/government and they have a shitty education system.

As we sit right now any person in America can get a free high school education and if they are willing to work they can get a college education. They can learn a skill that can lead to them getting a job that allows them to live a decent life and they live that life in reasonable security.

When that stops is when things go bad.
