Total expenses for the richest family in the bottom half of America?

24% taxes
27% housing
34% food, health care, child care, transportation, household needs
12% energy

That’s 97% of their income. The richest family among 70,000,000 households is left with just $1,500… It comes to $30 a week, barely enough to take the family out for a pizza.
