I like how the data is presented in a way a layman can understand.

It is worth noting that this is something of a global phenomenon.There is a book named "Plutocrats" that came out maybe a year ago which is a well researched and balanced account of the subject.

The economic structure the United States is hurtling towards is typical of what they like to call "Third World" countries

It's not at all a good thing

It isn't even about a country,more like political ideologies .
We are talking extremes(one end of the spectrum and the other).
Communism and Capitalism occupy those ends.The ills of communism was highlighted but no meaningful attention given to the ills of capitalism,instead socialism(more in the middle..)was outlawed.This has to be the result of a successful campaign staged by the capitalists.They got the greenlight regarding media consolidation from government hence making the media their propaganda. apparatus.The love of mobey is the reason behind countries being involved in wars,drug trade and slavery.You can't patent a plant hence natural cures for fatal diseases are overlooked,people will just have to continue to die.
The Waltmarts of this world ascribe to an anti union doctrine which ensures a spiraling middle class.
The greatest accomplishment of the devil is to convince the World he does not exist.Donmanship and dawg eat dawg mentality are from the afflicted observing what has been used to gain success by those larger than life people.

ON December 4, a day before Nelson Mandela's passing, President Barack Obama in a speech on income inequality, referenced Jamaica as an example of the extreme forms of wealth inequality in the world and lamented that the United States now compares with us on that measure.

"A child born in the top 20 per cent has about a two in three chance of staying at or near the top," Obama said. "A child born into the bottom 20 per cent has a less than a one in 20 shot at making it to the top. He's 10 times likelier to stay where he is.

In fact, statistics show not only that our levels of income inequality rank near countries like Jamaica and Argentina, but that it is harder today for a child born here in America to improve her station in life than it is for children in most of our wealthy allies..."

Obama's speech highlights a major challenge for many governments and non-government organisations worldwide — the fact that millions of people have far in excess of their needs, while millions of others struggle to survive. In the United States, close to 40 million people live in poverty, and in Latin America and the Caribbean, the gap between the rich and poor is the widest in the world.
In a 2011 report by the International Monetary Fund, Jamaica ranks second worst, behind Suriname, among 23 countries in the Americas on the unequal distribution of income measure.

Unsurprisingly, we do not talk about the wealth gap, less we offend the wealthiest among us. Further, it carries the worrying spectre that some of us may have to give up something — such as modifying our vulgar excesses and paying our employees a living wage. It may raise inconvenient questions about the massive profits made by some banks, for example, while imposing onerous fees on the working poor just to maintain an account.

They are. not talking Kartel rich,when asked about her trip to Jamaica,Hillary made sure she said there are some very wealthy people living there.
These people would maintain the same claass status living in the US.
Maybe leading the World in such regards is correlated with leading the World in murder per capita.
A more fair distribution of wealth,that is what Manley was maligned for.
Jamaica is a successful capitalist state.

[Assasin]

"Jamaica is a successful capitalist state."

You are very wrong on that. What is describe above is not a successful capitalist state. No state is successful with 16% unemployment. Dollar constantly devaluing, and government is the biggest employer, and not producing anything. Someone could also use it to say it is a failed socialist state.

Provision coming for foreign registered yachts to cruise freely around the island's coast

6:37 am, Thu December 19, 2013







The Maritime Authority of Jamaica (MAJ), through the Shipping Act, has started to formally implement provisions to allow foreign registered yachts and other leisure craft to cruise freely around the island's coast. This will be allowed after the vessel visits the first Port-of-Call.
A statement from the Maritime Authority says the implementation of the Cruising Permit will increase the attractiveness of Jamaica as a yachting destination to foreign boat owners.
This means that a vessel which makes its first port call will only need to obtain Customs/Immigration as well as Health clearance and may remain in Jamaica's maritime space for six months. It will do its outward clearance at the last Port-of-Call.
After remaining in Jamaican waters for six months, the visiting yacht is required to provide documentary evidence that it departed Jamaica for a minimum period of 15 days, before returning.
Vessels which desire to remain beyond the period of six months may apply to have their permit renewed, providing they meet the prescribed conditions.

In light of the facts,would you say the demographic our Govt seems to be working for is the capiyalists?

Employment isn't an indicator,workers will quickly be replaced mechanical devices.
The agenda of the capitalists is best realized in Jamaica.
If anything the argument should be we have the facade of a socialist party,believe me things would have been strikingly different if we had an authentic one.
