Panasonic's LUMIX DMC-GF2 is the signature DSL Micro Compact System camera in its impressive mirrorless lineup. Though it's the smallest and lightest Panasonic model, the GF2 nevertheless manages to deliver the superior image quality you expect from the LUMIX series. Compared to its predecessor, the GF2 is 19% smaller and 7% lighter, yet it has the same all-metal body and integrated flash.
Touch control and the new Graphic User Interface make this an extremely easy to use camera, no matter what your experience level. Simple button features, dedicated buttons for movie recording and Intelligent Auto Mode and a compact design, contribute to the GF2s exceptionally intuitive operation.
The DMC-GF2 is available in several designer colors including true black, pure white, silver, pink and a vibrant red.
Micro Four Thirds System Technology: The GF2 conforms to the Micro Four Thirds System standard. By eliminating the mirror box and optical viewfinder from the camera body, the GF2 benefits from a dramatic reduction in size and weight compared to conventional DSLR cameras.
3.0-inch LCD with 460,000-dot High Resolution: The generous 3.0-inch 3:2 LCD screen has a 460,000-dot resolution and a 100% field of view that makes it possible to frame shots in a variety of ways, for both taking photographs and viewing playback. With LUMIX's acclaimed Intelligent LCD technology, screen brightness is adjusted in 11 individual steps depending on the shooting conditions. Images are reproduced with stunning clarity and sharpness in virtually any situation, from bright daylight to nighttime and from high-angle to low-angle. The large screen also makes sharing photos and videos fun and very easy.
12.1-megapixel Live MOS Sensor: The comprehensive digital imaging technology on the GF2 has been newly redeveloped. The result is a higher level of image quality that surpasses many DSLR cameras.
The powerful 12.1-megapixel Live MOS sensor offers the superior image quality of a CCD sensor with the energy efficiency of a CMOS sensor. The advanced circuit structure is unaffected by noise generated in the individual circuits, so photo and movie images are clear even at high ISO sensitivity levels. The sensor's advanced technology also makes it possible for the GF2 to read four channels of data simultaneously, which helps the camera produce images at 60 frames per second so that Full-time Live View Images are wonderfully smooth.
Venus Engine: The DMC-GF2 is equipped with a Venus Engine that offers high performance signal processing for both stills and movies. The advanced noise reduction system, which includes Chromatic Noise Reduction and 3D Noise Reduction, produces crisp, naturally balanced images, even when shooting at a high ISO. This helps prevent the color bleeding and deterioration of resolution that can occur due to chromatic abnormalities.
Combined with the Live MOS sensor, the Venus Engine captures amazing 12.1-megapixel, high resolution images with dazzling accuracy. The faster signal processing enables a smooth, clear live view for better photo editing and enhancement.
Interchangeable Lenses: The major appeal of interchangeable lens system cameras like the GF2 is their ability to provide more flexibility when taking images, simply by switching the lens. The GF2 is compatible with the entire lineup of LUMIX G and Leica DG lenses; including fisheye, ultra-wide angle, telephoto and HD video recording. This gives far greater creative control over photos and videos. Optional DMW-MA1, DMW-MA2M and DMW-MA3R mount adaptors allow the GF2 to be used with an even greater selection of lenses.
Dust Reduction System: While swapping lenses on an interchangeable system camera surely has advantages, it also presents a risk. If dust or debris gets inside the camera when lenses are changed, it can cling to the image sensor and leave marks on the images. This can be particularly apparent in areas of sky and is emphasized when shooting at small apertures. However, the GF2 has been outfitted with a Dust Reduction System that eliminates the possibility of sensor contamination by using a Supersonic Wave Filter. Located in front of the Live MOS sensor between the low-pass filter and the shutter, the Supersonic filter vibrates approximately 50,000 times per second to repel dust and particles before they can reach the image sensor. This helps protect the camera's internal mechanism and will maintain unblemished image quality.
Intelligent Auto (iA) Mode: If you've been putting off buying a DSLR camera because you think they're just too complicated for everyday use, wait no longer. The DMC-GF2 has all the power of a complex DSLR with the usability of an everyday point-and-shoot. The GF2 has the same Intelligent Auto (iA) Mode as the LUMIX compact cameras, so you can let the camera do all the work with just the touch of a button. In iA Mode, the GF2 automatically detects and corrects a host of parameters to effortlessly deliver beautiful photos and videos. And with the newly incorporated Intelligent Resolution technology that is always engaged in iA Mode, you get high quality images with gorgeous clarity every time you press the shutter.
Intelligent D-range Control: You will take more natural-looking photos with the new Intelligent D-range control, which optimizes exposure on each part of an image. This prevents blocked shadows and blown highlights, ensuring that gradation and fine details are reproduced correctly. There's also an automatic backlight compensation feature that detects bright lighting behind your subject and corrects it before the image is stored. You can shoot with confidence in virtually any situation, capturing the shots you want at any time of day or night, even if you don't know the first thing about photo lighting.
Face Recognition: Face Recognition makes it easier than ever to take incredible portraits of the most important people in your life. The GF2 can "remember" faces that you register on the camera's memory. Simply take a full-face portrait of your subject and enter details like a name and birth date. Once registered, any time a saved face is detected the GF2 shows the display name you entered for that person and optimizes focus and exposure for bright, clear images. Up to three saved faces can be displayed at one time and you can register up to 15 different people. You'll get beautiful shots of your children, your family and your friends in any shooting situation thanks to Face Recognition.
Face Detection: Face Detection also enhances your vacation photos, holiday photos and party photos by automatically detecting human faces in a shot. Again, focus and exposure are optimized to create natural portraits with stunning detail and clarity, even when the frame is crowded. There's digital red-eye removal, too, so your subjects' facial expressions are more attractive and natural looking.
AF Tracking: You can use AF Tracking along with Face Detection to automatically focus and lock on subjects that are in motion, maintaining optimal focus until you press the shutter. If you have ever tried to take a picture of an active toddler, a pet at play, a child's dance recital or a sporting event, you know just how valuable this feature will be. You won't ever have to press the shutter halfway over and over again to readjust focus as you try to compose a shot. Once you engage AF Tracking on your desired subject, you can take all the time you need waiting for the perfect shooting opportunity, knowing that you'll get beautiful results every time.
Intelligent Scene Selector: The GF2's Intelligent Scene Selector automatically chooses the most appropriate scene mode for your shooting conditions. It will set the Scene Mode to Scenery, Night Scenery, Portrait, Night Portrait, Sunset or Macro by calculating the level of ambient lighting, focusing distance and whether human faces are present in the frame. You never have to worry about manually adjusting complex settings; just point and shoot and let the intuitive Intelligent Scene Selector do the rest.
Intelligent ISO Control: The Venus Engine powers the GF2's Intelligent ISO Control feature, which detects subject movement and automatically corrects shutter speed and ISO settings to accommodate the motion and light conditions. When the camera detects motion, it automatically raises ISO and increases shutter speed to prevent motion blur. When your subject remains still, the camera lowers ISO for clear, natural photos. You are free to take fantastic action shots and candid photos at sporting events, school performances, recitals, when on vacation and more, without the hassle or frustration of manual settings adjustment, or waiting for an active subject to sit still.
MEGA O.I.S.: Lens Optical Image Stabilization is another way the GF2 combats blurring and ghosting in your photos. Sometimes, the movement of your hand as you press the shutter button to take a shot, causes the camera to shake, which can compromise the quality of the image. The MEGA O.I.S. system built into many Lumix lenses detects even the slightest camera vibrations caused by hand-shake so that you get sharp, clear images. Image stabilization also works with macro and zoom photos, which can be particularly susceptible to blurring, and also lets you shoot with confidence in low-light conditions.
Intuitive Touch Control: The GF2 is equipped with an intuitive touch control system; many of the camera's most useful functions can be activated with one simple tap on the responsive LCD screen.
Touch Control Shooting: With touch control shooting you have the freedom to frame great shots without missing a moment. Auto focus is set instantly, just by touching the image on the LCD screen. With just a touch those once-in-a-lifetime photos will come to you and you can capture them with full optimization and stunning image quality.
Touch Control Shutter: If you love taking action shots at sporting events, live performances or a night out on the town, the GF2's touch control shutter feature makes it possible to operate the shutter release and auto focus simultaneously. You will be able to capture dynamic fast-action images and those decisive moments with the best possible settings, in any situation.
Touch Control Defocus: For a lovely soft focus effect on any photo, simply engage the touch control defocus feature by sliding your finger across the indicator on the screen. This function gives you the ability to create more artistic expression in your photos.
Touch Control AF: Candid photos often capture some of life's best moments, but for most of us these shots can be extremely difficult to get just right. With the GF2's touch control auto focus, you can lock in on a moving subject with optimized focus until you are ready to take the picture. The intuitive touch screen even lets you select the precise size and area of focus for even more control over your images.
Movable MF Assist: If you prefer the power of adjusting camera settings manually, the touch screen has Moveable MF Assist mode, which lets you enlarge any part of an image just by touch, even when you're not using an automated function. You can zoom 1x, 5x or 10x before you snap the shot, making it much easier to check the focus and make any adjustments.
Touch Control Playback and Playback Zoom: Take full advantage of the GF2's large display screen with touch control playback and playback zoom. Just touch any part of your image to enlarge it: you can zoom in as much as the 16x maximum and then pan to other areas of the photo by sliding your finger across the screen. This makes it quick and easy to double check your photos for quality and clarity, which is extremely helpful if you are trying your hand at manual settings or just want to be sure you've captured a moment beautifully.
Extended Battery Life: Thanks to the Venus Engine image processor, which uses less energy than other digital image processors, you won't ever have to worry about running out of battery power during a long day of shooting with the GF2. The rechargeable lithium-ion battery gives you up to 320 shots on a single charge, making the GF2 ideal for travel, parties, holidays or any occasion when you want the freedom of an extended shooting time without having to stop to switch out or recharge a battery.
For the power of a DSLR with the portability of a compact point-and-shoot, there's no better choice than the DMC-GF2 from Panasonic. The lightweight aluminum chassis, ergonomic grip, slight profile, intuitive features and advanced technology make this one of the easiest digital cameras to use, while the interchangeable lenses give you greater creative control over your photos and videos. The tiny, pocket-sized GF2 is truly a versatile and pleasantly surprising camera.

I love these sandals so much I bought two pairs. One black and one beige. I was worried about going on a holiday as bone spurs made it impossible to walk without my orthodic running shoes. I purchased these sandals for pools side and I have not taken them off since!!!!They were like a gift from the heavens, I absolutely love them and will buy more when the pairs I have wear out. I am a very satisfied customer and have recommended these shoes to others. The only down fall is that once you have gotten the shoes wet, the straping stretches, which may or maynot change the position of the arch support. Try to keep them dry.

These sandals are supposed to help Plantar Fasciitis. They were ill fitting even though I ordered the right size. I got no relief from them and even had more pain while I wore them. Well made and durable, it was worth a try. You may get the relief & comfort you are looking for. They just weren't the shoe for me

Good description of product
By Long time lover of flip flops
from Wolfeboro, NH
Good arch support so am hoping I can wear these for long periods of time without my plantar fasciitis flaring up. Love wearing this type of sandal in hot weather, and the ease of "off/on". Comfort would be enhanced if the strap were made of softer material. Like the neutral color.
The Plantar Fasciitis Sandal Just Works!
By Tom
from East Central Florida
These orthotic sandals helped hasten the recovery after treatment for Plantar Fasciitis.
Very good product
By dj
from Anderson SC
The strap chafed at first giving me a blister. However, after a few days the strap "gave" a little and now shoes are comfortable plus with the arch support they have relieved my constant foot pain
I love these sandals!
By Boomer
from Columbia,Mo
Feel comfortable except for the "toe strap" but I can get used to it because the arch feels great.

Didn't work for me
By Ocicat Mom
from West Palm Beach FL
I think having a thong between my toes is not good for my plantar fasciitis. I don't know about anyone else...

These sandals were the same as another ones and did not help at all with my lower back pain.

As classical singers, many of us have ideas for start-ups, gigs and special projects. A lot of us have ideas for businesses even outside of the musical realm. We are self-starters with endless creativity and big ideas.
If you are thinking about taking the leap into action, this list may help you avoid some common pitfalls and get a better sense of what reality will be like once you get rolling. Read through this list and shoot me an email, I'd love to encourage you in your journey!
As I have developed Velvet Singer, LLC over the last five years, I have added to this list of lessons learned, which I have taped on the wall by my desk. The list grew quickly at first, but I find I keep uncovering more even now. Here they are, in the order that I discovered them.
As I look through the list, I realize several are religious / spiritual. If you are into any "higher power," they may translate. If not, you may still identify with the meat under the sauce.
Why would God be in the mix? From a practical point of view, starting a business or start-up project will challenge you on all levels. You will experience high "highs" and low "lows". Exhaustion and profound joy. Worries and great optimism (mostly optimism for me, let's be honest!). Entrepreneurship is a spiritual experience. It has the power to cut to the core of your self-worth and reveal your priorities and values. If you want in, get ready to be revealed!
1) Always altruism, never cash.
Don't get burned thinking about the money, and not genuinely focusing on solving people's needs. It is a bit like method acting, people know when you are faking it.
2) Humble joy for any rewards the Lord gives.
It is a miracle of God that we can do anything at all that makes money. Throw a small God party any time anyone pays you even $1. Many people in the world don't have access to behold this miracle in such close proximity, count yourself lucky.
3) Exercise patience.
We all want to wring the thing by the neck and make it submit. It is OK to wait. Many great things can happen when you wait. "Waiting is fullness" says the Martian from "Stranger in a Strange Land." Do you grok?
4) Don't spend money.
Don't buy anything. Make it from scratch or skip it altogether. You don't have to spend money to make money. Don't go into debt, just start small and give it time.
5) Phone calls, not email.
Especially if you have gone ten rounds with an unhappy client or customer, pick up the phone rather than taking three hours to compose the greatest email of all time that will finally illuminate and defuse the situation. This is also true of selling any idea or product. Email eats. Attachments will not get clicked on, links will not get clicked.
6) Reply quickly.
Count it a point of pride that you are quick on the reply. People notice.
7) Listen and let people talk.
The best way to "sell" is to be genuinely interested in and deeply understanding of your customers' needs. The only way to do that is to listen. Furthermore, you can't lose sight that you are in this business, even in a small way, to help heal the world and to do good. Part of what you offer is an ear. Think of yourself as a minister or counselor, not a salesperson.
8) Don't sell to your friends, they won't buy anything anyway.
If you have created a business plan, even if it is just in your head, don't count on getting off the ground with a little help from your friends. They won't buy anything and you'll strain the relationship by asking them. Plan on making brand new friends / contacts (which may come out of existing relationships / partnerships), and if any of your old friends want to join up, they know where to find you.
9) Plan for mistakes. Error capture. Log findings.
Even for non-technical businesses, plan that you will make tangible, repeated mistakes. Wherever possible, be deliberate and extremely thorough about documenting and understanding how your mistakes happened. If you are in a technical world, measure the damage and "capture" the error.
10) Donate a portion of your revenue at a fixed proportion.
Even if it is only 1% – 10% of revenue, donate a portion of your revenue from the first dollar you make. Besides the actual good that donating revenue to a good cause does, it helps reshape your understanding of your purpose, it elevates your endeavor from a boring job to a noble calling. Instead of feeling like Willy Loman, all of a sudden, you will feel like Don Quixote. This is your quest!
11) Walk by faith, not by sight.
Entrepreneurship is a spiritual endeavor. You are entering uncharted territory. Pray and trust your gut. Don't take too much time to research option A vs. option B. You probably already know what choice you want to make. Go for it.
12) Have fun and be cool.
Don't get all frazzled and take things too seriously. If you need to make money so you can eat food, get a job. Entrepreneurship is for fun. You'll regret the times you run around like a mad man at conferences trying to make every last bit count. It is more important to "be cool, honey bunny, be cool."
13) Fight resistance with courage.
Every day you will feel resistance, a little nagging voice trying to divert you and discourage you. Be encouraged, the louder that voice is, the more you know you are on to something great. In fact, seek out that wet blanket feeling of heavy resistance, learn to make it your friend, like a rival in a tennis match, and then face it with explosive bursts of courage. Read The War of Art by Pressfield for more.
14) Have an opinion, take a stance.
Don't offer too many products, don't allow too much customization, don't be too flexible, don't say yes to everything. Take a stance, defend a point of view. Your brand, no matter what it is, needs to have personality. Your customers / clients ultimately commit to you, they buy you, not a product or service.
15) Play "small ball."
Don't try to sell the "home run" to your customers; rather, get the relationship started and start to help them. Play small ball and see if they can move around the bases. If they don't respond to a simple email offering help, they aren't likely to invest the time, energy and money to become a committed partner with you through the purchase of your product or service. If you are planning a recital, think through who of your contacts would call or email you right back and concentrate your efforts on getting them to attend, rather than flyer-ing the neighborhood.

The USSSA High School Varsity National Team held their last practice before their first official game for Prague Baseball Week. USSSA began with a team batting practice which drew in many spectators. Donnie DeWees (FAU) is looking to pick up where left off last year with his shorts compact left handed swing. Connor Crile also put on a show in batting practice with an exceptionally smooth left handed stroke.

Alumni Selected Day 3
After three long days of painstaking choices, the 2012 MLB Draft has come to end with the Phillies selecting the 1238th player. Day three of the draft proved to be successful as there were a number more of alumni called upon. USSSA World Championship standout Derek Deyoung was picked in the 18th round by the Athletics.
Draft Coverage: Day 2
With day two coming to a close after 15 rounds, there were yet more USSSA and ABR alumni names seen in the draft. However, we must first take notice of a few of the 1st round names that were overlooked yesterday in the Day 1 coverage.
Draft Coverage: Day 1
With camps beginning in 2008, 2011 marked the first actual year where the majority of ABR participants would be eligible for the draft. However, there were a few ABR alumni eligible in 2010. Alumni Brandon Mims (Astros 9th round), Luis Benitez Ortiz (Blue Jays 31st round), Chris Lee (White Sox 37th round), and Kenny Diaz (Astros 49th round) were each taken in the 2010 MLB Draft.
Meet the 2012 USSSA HS Varsity National Team
Traveling abroad to represent the United States and USSSA is a once in a lifetime opportunity for many. In just a few short weeks, USSSA will be sending its High School Varsity National Team to Prague, Czech Republic, to compete in the 31st annual "Prague Baseball Week" Tournament, which is held at the Eagles Praha Stadium. All international expenses are covered for the team members by USSSA. 2012 marks the third annual Team trip over seas for the USSSA National Team and its second consecutive trip to Prague. Last year the highly talented USSSA National Team placed third in the Prague Baseball Week tournament which included national teams from the Czech Republic, Poland, and France. The players received the opportunity to play against the very teams which participate in the World Baseball classic

By: Terry Ettinger
SUNY ESF is producing its own heat and electricity. Our Terry Ettinger tells us how they are able to do that in this edition of Going Green.
This building contains its own power plant producing enough heat and electricity for this building and four others, yet maintains a very low carbon footprint. That's because part of the system is fueled by a renewable energy resource: Wood pellets.
"Now the wood system, we have a gasification boiler, a gasifier. We have a gasifier that will take the wood pellets, heat them without much oxygen around and that produces a gas. Then we add air to that gas and burn that to produce high-pressure steam. That's how we do that. That's more efficient than just burning the wood pellets directly and we have lower emissions from that," said Michael Kelleher, Director of Renewable Energy Systems of SUNY ESF.
And that system is within the required code, but this building sits in a high- traffic and pedestrian area so to alleviate any concerns, a bit more was done.
Kelleher said, "We've added to it an electrostatic precipitator. You can think of that as a series of metal plates that have an electrical charge and these small particles of emissions that would come out are attracted and attach to those plates. So we reduce the emissions further and go beyond what's required by code in our emissions. And then occasionally you just shake those plates, eliminate the charge and shake those plates and we collect some ash off them."
Producing about a 55 gallon drum of ash every other day, but that's not a problem since it goes back into the process to grow more wood.
Kelleher said, "We have a bunch of forestland and we grow willow as part of our research projects. We have a need for that ash which is like a liming agent, increases the ph. So we can use that ash on our land to help recycle the nutrients from the wood that we burn to grow more biomass."

The Rise of the New Global Super-Rich and the Fall of Everyone Else
Winner of the 2013 Lionel Gelber Prize
There has always been some gap between rich and poor in this country, but in the last few decades what it means to be rich has changed dramatically. Alarmingly, the greatest income gap is not between the 1 percent and the 99 percent, but within the wealthiest 1 percent of our nation--as the merely wealthy are left behind by the rapidly expanding fortunes of the new global super-rich. Forget the 1 percent; Plutocrats proves that it is the wealthiest 0.1 percent who are outpacing the rest of us at break-neck speed.
What's changed is more than numbers. Today, most colossal fortunes are new, not inherited--amassed by perceptive businessmen who see themselves as deserving victors in a cut-throat international competition. As a transglobal class of successful professionals, today's self-made oligarchs often feel they have more in common with one another than with their countrymen back home. Bringing together the economics and psychology of these new super-rich, Plutocrats puts us inside a league very much of its own, with its own rules.
The closest mirror to our own time is the late nineteenth century Gilded Age--the era of powerful 'robber barons' like Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller. Then as now, emerging markets and innovative technologies collided to produce unprecedented wealth for more people than ever in human history. Yet those at the very top benefited far more than others--and from this pinnacle they exercised immense and unchecked power in their countries. Today's closest analogue to these robber barons can be found in the turbulent economies of India, Brazil, and China, all home to ferocious market competition and political turmoil. But wealth, corruption, and populism are no longer constrained by national borders, so this new Gilded Age is already transforming the economics of the West as well. Plutocrats demonstrates how social upheavals generated by the first Gilded Age may pale in comparison to what is in store for us, as the wealth of the entire globalized world is concentrated in fewer and fewer hands.
Cracking open the tight-knit world of the new global super-rich is Chrystia Freeland, an acclaimed business journalist who has spent nearly two decades reporting on the new transglobal elite. She parses an internal Citigroup memo that urges clients to design portfolios around the international "Plutonomy" and not the national "rest"; follows Russian, Mexican, and Indian oligarchs during the privatization boom as they manipulate the levers of power to commandeer their local economies; breaks down the gender divide between the vast female-managed 'middle class' and the world's one thousand billionaires; shows how, by controlling both the economic and political institutions of their nation, the richest members of China's National People's Congress have amassed more wealth than every branch of American government combined--the president, his cabinet, the justices of the Supreme Court, and both houses of Congress.
Though the results can be shocking, Freeland dissects the lives of the world's wealthiest individuals with empathy, intelligence, and deep insight. Brightly written, powerfully researched, and propelled by fascinating original interviews with the plutocrats themselves, Plutocrats is a tour-de-force of social and economic history, and the definitive examination of inequality in our time.
The poor enjoy what the rich could not before afford. What were the luxuries have become the necessaries of life. The laborer has now more comforts than the farmer had a few generations ago. The farmer has more luxuries than the landlord had, and is more richly clad and better housed. The landlord has books and pictures rarer and appointments more artistic than the king could then obtain.
—Andrew Carnegie
Branko Milanovic is an economist at the World Bank. He first became interested in income inequality studying for his PhD in the 1980s in his native Yugoslavia, where he discovered it was officially viewed as a "sensitive" subject—which meant one the ruling regime didn't want its scholars to look at too closely. That wasn't a huge surprise; after all, the central ideological promise of socialism was to deliver a classless society.
But when Milanovic moved to Washington, he discovered a curious thing. Americans were happy to celebrate their super-rich and, at least sometimes, worry about their poor. But putting those two conversations together and talking about economic inequality was pretty much taboo.
"I was once told by the head of a prestigious think tank in Washington, D.C., that the think tank's board was very unlikely to fund any work that had income or wealth inequality in its title," Milanovic, who wears a beard and has a receding hairline and teddy bear build, explained in a recent book. "Yes, they would finance anything to do with poverty alleviation, but inequality was an altogether different matter."
"Why?" he asked. "Because 'my' concern with the poverty of some people actually projects me in a very nice, warm glow: I am ready to use my money to help them. Charity is a good thing; a lot of egos are boosted by it and many ethical points earned even when only tiny amounts are given to the poor. But inequality is different: Every mention of it raises in fact the issue of the appropriateness or legitimacy of my income."
The point isn't that the super-elite are reluctant to display their wealth—that is, after all, at least part of the purpose of yachts, couture, vast homes, and high-profile big-buck philanthropy. But when the discussion shifts from celebratory to analytical, the super-elite get nervous. One Wall Street Democrat, who has held big jobs in Washington and at some of America's top financial institutions, told me President Barack Obama had alienated the business community by speaking about "the rich." It would be best not to refer to income differences at all, the banker said, but if the president couldn't avoid singling out the country's top earners, he should call them "affluent." Naming them as "rich," he told me, sounded divisive—something the rich don't want to be. Striking a similar tone, Bill Clinton, in his 2011 book, Back to Work, faulted Barack Obama for how he talks about those at the top. "I didn't attack them for their success," President Clinton wrote, attributing to that softer touch his greater success in getting those at the top to accept higher taxes.
Robert Kenny, a Boston psychologist who specializes in counseling the super-elite, agrees. He told an interviewer that "often the word 'rich' becomes a pejorative. It rhymes with 'bitch.' I've been in rooms and seen people stand up and say, 'I'm Bob Kenny and I'm rich.' And then they burst into tears."
It is not just the super-rich who don't like to talk about rising income inequality. It can be an ideologically uncomfortable conversation for many of the rest of us, too. That's because even—or perhaps particularly—in the view of its most ardent supporters, global capitalism wasn't supposed to work quite this way.
Until the past few decades, the received wisdom among economists was that income inequality would be fairly low in the preindustrial era—overall wealth and productivity were fairly small, so there wasn't that much for an elite to capture—then spike during industrialization, as the industrialists and industrial workers outstripped farmers (think of China today). Finally, in fully industrialized or postindustrial societies, income inequality would again decrease as education became more widespread and the state played a bigger, more redistributive role.
This view of the relationship between economic development and income inequality was first and most clearly articulated by Simon Kuznets, a Belarusian-born immigrant to the United States. Kuznets illustrated his theory with one of the most famous graphs in economics—the Kuznets curve, an upside-down U that traces the movement of society as its economy becomes more sophisticated and productive, from low inequality, to high inequality, and back down to low inequality.
Writing in the early years of the industrial revolution, and without the benefit of Kuznets's data and statistical analysis, Alexis de Tocqueville came up with a similar prediction: "If one looks closely at what has happened to the world since the beginning of society, it is easy to see that equality is prevalent only at the historical poles of civilization. Savages are equal because they are equally weak and ignorant. Very civilized men can all become equal because they all have at their disposal similar means of attaining comfort and happiness. Between these two extremes is found inequality of condition, wealth, knowledge—the power of the few, the poverty, ignorance, and weakness of the rest."
If you believe in capitalism—and nowadays pretty much the whole world does—the Kuznets curve was a wonderful theory. Economic progress might be brutal and bumpy and create losers along the way. But once we reached that Tocquevillian plateau of all being "very civilized men" (yes, men!), we would all share in the gains. Until the late 1970s, the United States, the world's poster child of capitalism, was also an embodiment of the Kuznets curve. The great postwar expansion was also the period of what economists have dubbed the Great Compression, when inequality shrank and most Americans came to think of themselves as middle class. This was the era when, in the words of Harvard economist Larry Katz, "Americans grew together." That seemed to be the natural shape of industrial capitalism.
Even the Reagan Revolution rode on the coattails of this paradigm—trickle-down economics, after all, emphasizes the trickle. But in the late 1970s, things started to change. The income of the middle class started to stagnate and those at the top began to pull away from everyone else. This shift was most pronounced in the United States, but by the twenty-first century, surging income inequality had become a worldwide phenomenon, visible in most of the developed Western economies as well as in the rising emerging markets.
The switch from the America of the Great Compression to the America of the 1 percent is still so recent that our intuitive beliefs about how capitalism works haven't caught up with the reality. In fact, surging income inequality is such a strong violation of our expectations that most of us don't realize it is happening.
That is what Duke University behavioral economist Dan Ariely discovered in a 2011 experiment with Michael Norton of Harvard Business School. Ariely showed people the wealth distribution in the United States, where the top 20 percent own 84 percent of the total wealth, and in Sweden, where the share of the top 20 percent is just 36 percent. Ninety-two percent of respondents said they preferred the wealth distribution of Sweden to that of the United States today. Ariely then asked his subjects to give their ideal distribution of wealth for the United States. Respondents preferred that the top 20 percent own just 32 percent of total wealth, an even more equitable distribution than Sweden's. When it comes to wealth inequality, Americans would prefer to live in Sweden—or in the late 1950s compared to the United States today. And they would like kibbutz-style egalitarianism best of all.
But the gap between the data and our intuition is not a good reason to ignore what is going on. And to understand how American capitalism—and capitalism around the world—is changing, you have to look at what is happening at the very top. That focus isn't class war; it's arithmetic. Larry Summers, the Harvard economist and former secretary of the Treasury, is hardly a radical. Yet he points out that America's economic growth over the past decade has been so unevenly shared that, for the middle class, "for the first time since the Great Depression, focusing on redistribution makes more sense than focusing on growth."
The skew toward the very top is so pronounced that you can't understand overall economic growth figures without taking it into account. As in a school whose improved test scores are due largely to the stellar performance of a few students, the surging fortunes at the very top can mask stagnation lower down the income distribution. Consider America's economic recovery in 2009–2010. Overall incomes in that period grew by 2.3 percent—tepid growth, to be sure, but a lot stronger than you might have guessed from the general gloom of that period.
Look more closely at the data, though, as economist Emmanuel Saez did, and it turns out that average Americans were right to doubt the economic comeback. That's because for 99 percent of Americans, incomes increased by a mere 0.2 percent. Meanwhile, the incomes of the top 1 percent jumped by 11.6 percent. It was definitely a recovery—for the 1 percent.
There's a similar story behind the boom in the emerging markets. The "India Shining" of the urban middle class has left untouched hundreds of millions of peasants living at subsistence levels, as the Bharatiya Janata Party discovered to its dismay when it sought reelection on the strength of that slogan; likewise, China's booming coastal elite is a world apart from the roughly half of the population who still live in villages in the country's vast hinterland.
This book is, therefore, an attempt to understand the changing shape of the world economy by looking at those at the very top: who they are, how they made their money, how they think, and how they relate to the rest of us. This isn't "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous", but it also isn't a remake of Who Is to Blame?, the influential nineteenth-century novel by Alexander Herzen, the father of Russian socialism.
This book takes as its starting point the conviction that we need capitalists, because we need capitalism—it being, like democracy, the best system we've figured out so far. But it also argues that outcomes matter, too, and that the pulling away of the plutocrats from everyone else is both an important consequence of the way that capitalism is working today and a new reality that will shape the future.
Other accounts of the top 1 percent have tended to focus either on politics or on economics. The choice can have ideological implications. If you are a fan of the plutocrats, you tend to prefer economic arguments, because that makes their rise seem inevitable, or at least inevitable in a market economy. Critics of the plutocrats often lean toward political explanations, because those show the dominance of the 1 percent to be the work of the fallible Beltway, rather than of Adam Smith.
This book is about both economics and politics. Political decisions helped to create the super-elite in the first place, and as the economic might of the super-elite class grows, so does its political muscle. The feedback loop between money, politics, and ideas is both cause and consequence of the rise of the super-elite. But economic forces matter, too. Globalization and the technology revolution—and the worldwide economic growth they are creating—are fundamental drivers of the rise of the plutocrats. Even rent-seeking plutocrats—those who owe their fortunes chiefly to favorable government decisions—have also been enriched partly by this growing global economic pie.
America still dominates the world economy, and Americans still dominate the super-elite. But this book also tries to put U.S. plutocrats into a global context. The rise of the 1 percent is a global phenomenon, and in a globalized world economy, the plutocrats are the most international of all, both in how they live their lives and in how they earn their fortunes.
Henry George, the nineteenth-century American economist and politician, was an ardent free trader and such a firm believer in free enterprise that he opposed income tax. For him, the emergence of his era's plutocrats, the robber barons, was "the Great Sphinx."
"This association of poverty with progress," he wrote, "is the great enigma of our times. . . . So long as all the increased wealth which modern progress brings goes but to build up great fortunes, to increase luxury and make sharper the contrast between the House of Have and the House of Want, progress is not real and cannot be permanent."
A century and a half later, that Great Sphinx has returned. This book is an attempt to unravel part of that enigma by opening the door to the House of Have and studying its residents.
A Booklist Editor's Choice of 2012
"Rising inequality is one of the most pressing issues of our time. Chrystia Freeland's Plutocrats provides us with a glimpse of the lives of America's elites and a disquieting look at the society that produces them. This well-written and lively account is a good primer for anyone who wants to understand one extreme of America today."
--Joseph Stiglitz, author of The Price of Inequality; University Professor, Columbia University
"Mix crisp economics, ripe history, and two pinches of salty gossip, and you have the flavor of Chrystia Freeland's entertaining book. From the opulent Bradley Martin ball of 1897 to its modern echoes in Sun Valley and Davos, Plutocrats chronicles the habits of the workaholic overclass—its taste for British public schools, its immodest philanthropy, its fundamental rootlessness. Even as she describes this gilded tribe, Freeland advances a paradoxical warning. Open societies may allow super-achievers to pile up extraordinary riches—and to feel that they have more or less deserved them. But the more these meritocrats succeed, the more likely they are to entrench their own offspring at the top of the heap, negating the very meritocracy that afforded them their chances. Already in the United States, graduating from college is more closely linked to having wealthy parents than to grades in high school. When class matters more than going to class, Freeland's message must be treated with the utmost seriousness."
--Sebastian Mallaby, author of More Money than God: Hedge Funds and the Making of a New Elite
"Our world increasingly revolves around global elites who not only have an oversized effect on our politics but also set the trends and furnish us with the dominant discourse. In this delightful book, Chrystia Freeland tells the story of how we got here and what distinguishes our elites from those of previous epochs. Most importantly, she explains why the elites' dominance, even when it appears benign, is a challenge to our institutions and gives us clues about how we can overcome it."
--Daron Acemoglu, co-author of Why Nations Fail; economics professor, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
"The world's wealthy elite are more wealthy, more knit together, more separate from their fellow citizens and probably more powerful than ever before. This very important book describes their lives and more important how their lives affect all of ours. It should be read by anyone concerned with how their world is being shaped and how it will evolve."
--Lawrence Summers, Former U.S. Treasury Secretary; Charles W. Eliot , University Professor, Harvard University
"Chrystia Freeland has written a fascinating account of perhaps the most important economic and political development of our era: the rise of a new plutocracy. She explains that today's wealthy are different from their predecessors: more skilled and more global; and more often employees than owners, notably so in finance and high technology. By putting together stories of individuals with reading of the scholarly evidence, she gives us a clear view of what many will view as a not so brave new world."
--Martin Wolf, Chief Economics Commentator for the Financial Times
