income inequality in the us has gone up over the last 40 years

americas high gini index is rare among developed countries

another way to look at inequality is to consider how much of the national income goes to the top of the distribution heres the share of income for the top 10 in the us over the last century or so

in addition to seeing an ever larger share of income the top 001 has also had their real incomes grow by over 600 over the last three decades while real incomes for the bottom 90 have been stagnant

one interesting aspect of wealth inequality is that americans vastly underestimate the degree of inequality

another important part of looking at inequality is how easy or hard it is for people to move around the income distribution between generations
