I downloaded one of these posters and (a) it looks great, but (b) it 
took forever to download and (c) quite a long time to print as well.

Why Tax the Rich?

As of 1990, the wealthiest 1% controlled 40% of the nation's wealth--
twice the percentage they held just 20 years before. (From Edward N.
Wolff, "Top Heavy," Twentieth Century Fund Press, 1995, ISBN
0-87078-360-2)
