Gonzalo San Gil, PhD. on 06 Jan 16T"he richest 10% of Americans earn half of all of income. In Britain, the top 10% hold 40% of all the income. Inequality is not just an issue for rich countries. A billion people have been lifted out of poverty since 1990, and Inequality has been rising in many other countries too. So, how much Inequality is too much?
