Remember what happened to all the 6-digit Income Yuppie Engineers who were employed by the Telecom industry until the year 2000 when the Bubble Burst? (many showed up at Salvation Army shelters).

There will be a lot of Former 6-Digit Earners in bread lines in the future.  

Many are extremely complacent and up to their eye-balls in debt... so do NOT walk under open windows of Banks and other former bastions of the parasitic 6 digit earners.

I'd say that many more 5 digit earners are complacent and up to their eyeballs in debt.  There is nothing to gain in blasting "6 digit" earners.  And if there are bread lines in the future, it will include mostly the 4 and 5 digit earners as well as many 6 digit earners. The ones who will make it through this relatively unscathed are the non-earners, the independently wealthy who have assets in the 7 and 8 digit range.

And how fun would that be for them?
(Ok, bunkers are fun and great to have when there is war but they are not a place to live in. )
