It's a problem if you care about any of the measurable real-world consequence of wealth inequality.

It's also a problem if you view it as a symptom of a system that isn't functioning well at giving everyone a fair shake in life, in participating economically or politically.

The number itself isn't a problem, it's what it causes and what it's caused by that's the problem.

Get money out of politics, get everyone a vote and the capacity to use it, make sure everyone's fed and housed adequately, everyone has access to health care and education ... make it so we're living in a Star Trek TNG universe, and I don't care about how much the next guy has either.

Until then, it's worth looking at, at least the very least to help us to see why we don't have all those nice things.
