A Look at the Numbers: How the Rich Get Richer - Mother Jones lays out some stats on the scary (to me) increase between the haves and have-nots in America.
ADJUSTED FOR INFLATION, the federal minimum wage has fallen 42% since its peak in 1968.
IF THE $5.15 HOURLY minimum wage had risen at the same rate as CEO compensation since 1990, it would now stand at $23.03.
