The Economist:

Wealth is so unevenly distributed that you need just $3,650 (less debts) to count yourself among the richest half of the world. A mere $77,000 puts you among the wealthiest 10%. And $798,000 places you in the wealthiest 1%.

David Leonhardt:

The typical American family makes less than the typical family did 15 years ago, a statement that hadn't previously been true since the Great Depression.

Christopher Matthews:

44% of Americans are living with less than $5,887 in savings for a family of four.

Thomas Piketty:

The richest 1 percent appropriated 60 percent of the increase in US national income between 1977 and 2007.
