I’m just about finished watching Jamie Johnson’s documentary The One Percent. If that name sounds familiar, it should. Jamie is the heir to the Johnson and Johnson fortune, and apparently loves driving his dad nuts by questioning his good financial fortune.
In this documentary, Jamie examines the ever-growing divide between the rich and the poor in the United States. Along the way, he meets some creepy fucking rich people, many of whom make me insanely embarrassed to live in the same country as them.
Following Jamie’s journey is interesting to say the least. We really get a peek into the psychosis of wealth, and the insecurities of the wealthy, especially the almighty Warren Buffett.
I’m not exactly sure if Jamie really gets the seriousness of the situation, but he’s trying. I think if he keeps this up, he’ll truly gain an understanding of where this country is headed if things don’t change.
