That is less than the top 1% nationally[1]. And he's working two jobs to not even be in the 1%. Waaaah!
So . . . how can he cheat the rest of us enough to be in the 1% while only having one job? That's the most amicable way to help him avoid your "fraud," isn't it?
A job is not really supposed to get someone into that top 1%. The "capitalism" thing isn't a secret, to be wealthy you need to own capital. If we organise so that people who are shrewd with resources get power, the results are better. The obvious alternative is people who work hard which which sounds good and that is about all the idea has going for it. It leads to poor outcomes for everyone.
The amount of good someone can do as an individual caps out pretty quickly but can get someone into a solid 10% top earners if they are exceptional. Beyond that, wealth and income come from how well a body deploys resources. Top 30% incomes are more than high enough to start buying in to assets - or they were before the central banks started tilting the board. But the response to that shouldn't be more lies.
