Holy Plutocracy Batman!

Plutocracy: (n.) Government by the wealthy. <usage> a country or society governed in this way; an elite or ruling class of people whose power derives from their wealth.

This is just incredible. Look at these charts showing the wealth distribution changes since 1979:

Inequality
