The herald had an articel where a professor talked about the whole 1% and 99% thing. As it has been said Canada isn't as out of wack as the states and he mentioned that in Canada the 1% starts at around $180,000.
One of the people in the plaza also mentioned that the current system doesn't factor in compassion but I would probably guess that corporations and the "1%" donate a significant amount. You just have to look at the united way campaigns and other events that go to help people.
The more I read about the arguments the less I understand what they are trying to accomplish.
