"owner class" - how about "those with substantial ownership of shares and other financial assets, a small minority even in the US"

In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes

These policies, via targetted tax cuts, massive corporate pork made possible by a war of choice, and lax monetary and banking policies, had as sole goal to make the rich richer.
