I was a bit taken aback when I read "neo-liberal policies" of Ronald Reagan! Until I realized the source was a British newspaper.

In addition to the numbers they present, they should have also looked at where the profits were going. I have seen very little analysis about "corporate wealth." In the US, the US supreme court a few years back gave corporations the same rights as individuals as if they were a human entity. It would be interesting to see what the distribution of wealth is between small businesses (which I am betting have received a smaller % of the profits) and corporations (with the largest 1 % having a greater % of the profits).
