US income inequality continues to grow
Anyone know when the last time wealth inequality had this much disparity? The late 1920s right before the big one hit.

Then the gap shortened up quite a bit until the late 1970s . After the 1970s though, the gap has been widening back up to the 1920s level.

Those that are denying the gap is widening is similar to those denying climate change exists. The only difference is there is more clear data on this.


This chart shows % change in income since 1979. Between WW2 and 1979, the middle and rich classes % income change was similar to one another.
