Complete bullshit graph on the first slide. You can't compare percentiles captured by groups across time if you don't define the groups as percentiles. The graph totally obscures that fewer people fall into the "middle class" according to his narrow definition, and more people are in his definition of "upper class". Of course the "upper class" is going to have a higher % capture if it magically gets more people. Sensible graphs show what happens at quintile boundaries, or averages for quintiles, not averages for bullshit moving targets.
