This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

These are federal statistics. I wouldn't trust those, especially not since Trump tries his best to skim and remove anything he doesn't like.

The reality is way worse. The 1% holds far more than the graph shows.
