The US wealth divide has never been bigger:
The top 20% of earners now account for ~58% of all personal spending in the US, the highest proportion on record.
At the same time, the bottom 80% account for just ~42%, the lowest on record.
This comes as personal outlays growth for the top 20% has averaged +8.3% per year since the 2020 pandemic, almost double the +4.5% seen for the bottom 80%.
Over the last year, the gap has widened further, with the top 20% seeing a +6.5% increase in spending, compared to +2.6% for the bottom 80%.
To put this into perspective, in the 1990s, both groups accounted for roughly equal proportions of total personal spending, at ~50% each.
Asset owners are the only winners in this economy.

Meanwhile kalshi literally has a *fake trade generator* on their official website

You are supposed to "validate" your trade by pasting a valid trade ID, but the system doesn't actually check the ID.
Type any 11 characters string and you will be able to remove the "Preview" watermark and make it look legit.
I don't even have a problem with the feature (expect for the dishonesty of the fake ID verification), I just find it funny that polymarket is enduring a coordinated media campaign about potential fake trades while their main competitor is doing it openly and no one cares.
