Major Western European countries have been very critical of U.S. income inequality. Yet:
1. Western European countries per capita incomes are over $10,000 a year less than U.S. per capita income.
2. There's much less upward income mobility in Western Europe than in the U.S., e.g. someone in the bottom 40% rising to the top 40%.
3. Western European economies are falling apart from their attempts to make people more equal. |
