Filmmaker Jamie Johnson examines the growing divide between the wealthy and the poor in America in this documentary. Johnson, an heir to the Johnson & Johnson fortune, interviews a number of America's richest people (including Apple Computers' Steve Forbes and Kinko's founder Paul Orfalea) and asks them about the inherent dangers of having the majority of America's money in the hands of less than one percent of its citizens.
