That Second Chart... What Does It Really Mean?
Two economic charts from the Peterson Institute for International Economics show income inequality: Figure 2 depicts real disposable income growth from 1985 to 2016, revealing the top 10% saw the most growth while the bottom 10% barely improved. Figure 3 compares pretax income growth for the bottom 50% in Europe (37%) versus the US (3%) since 1980, highlighting stark disparities. The overlaid text summarizes these findings, emphasizing that wealth has concentrated at the top while the bottom half has seen minimal gains.
