I interpret the article's tone as more of:
> Let's be precise. The actual 1% are not the ultra-wealthy, they're doctors, senior SV engineers, and regional Vice Presidents. That's not who people are protesting wall street about.

Also, why are you talking about 1.4 million? The article claims “The threshold for membership in the 1 percent in 2014 was an annual household income of $386,000, excluding any capital gains,”
$386k total comp is definitely Google-engineer range.
