PICTURE OF ECONOMIC INEQUALITY

[Quoting economist Joseph Stiglitz in The Great Divide:

“There are so many different parts to America’s inequality: the extremes of income and wealth at the top, the hollowing out of the middle, the increase of poverty at the bottom. Each has its own causes, and needs its own remedies.”
