Richest 0.1% In U.S. Now Have As Much Wealth As The Bottom 90%
The gap between the rich and the poor has officially reached absurd levels. The richest 0.1% of Americans now own roughly the same amount as the bottom 90%…
A new paper by Mr Saez and Gabriel Zucman of the London School of Economics reckons past estimates badly underestimated the share of wealth belonging to the very rich. It uses a richer variety of sources than prior studies, including detailed data on personal income taxes (which the authors mine for figures on capital income) and property tax, which they check against Fed data on aggregate wealth. The authors note that not every potential source of error can be accounted for; tax avoidance strategies, for instance, could cause either an overestimation of the wealth share of the rich (if they classify labour income as capital income in order to take advantage of lower rates) or an underestimation (if they intentionally seek out lower yielding investments for their tax advantages). Yet they believe their estimates represent an improvement over past attempts.
So the gap may be even bigger, since the ridiculously wealth have this tendency to hide their money quite well from the taxman.
