Really?
The policies that have contributed far more than any others over the last forty years to wealth disparity in favor of the very well off involve ultra-accommodative monetary policy by the Fed, including but not limited to the recent iterations of QE. Are you claiming that those were partisan measures pushed primarily by Republicans?
If not, would you care to try to tell us what other policy or policies implemented by
either party between 1981 and 2012 resulted in increased income or wealth disparity that comparatively benefited the wealthy?
(I don't think anyone needs to hold his/her breath waiting for an answer.)
