The GINI coefficients between us and our peers tells a lot of the story. We have some of the worst wealth disparity in the developed world.

Granted, our status as "developed" may change over the next century.

The GINI coefficient is just a poor statistic but with the way technology is moving all developed nations' status as "developed" could very well change in the next 100 years, so I don't know what that really means.
