Every rule has its exceptions, but generally speaking, those who are disposed to invent, create, save, and invest will always have a disproportionate share of the "net worth" available in an economic system. It should be surprising if we found this not to be true. This means that, again as a general rule, any member of the "20 that share 2%" can advance themselves to the "6" by applying these habits/activities. It may then be reasonably assumed that were the sum total of all assets to be redistributed evenly amongst the populace--one the economic chaos had settled--this chart would quickly represent itslef again in a similar distribution as it is shown now, likely within a few short years.
