Wealth Per Capita Growth Contradicts Poorer Poor Narrative
The piece cites U S savings bank data from 1820 to 1898 to argue that wealth per capita rose dramatically. It notes per capita savings grew from 12 cents to over 42 dollars, with depositor averages from 48 to 429 dollars, and total deposits increasing from 1.19 million to over 3.69 billion, challenging the claim that the poor are getting poorer. It also criticizes political figures and portrays populist rhetoric as misleading.
