Reich attributes the past more equivalent distribution of wealth in the 1950s and 1960s to stronger unions. He comments that union membership has fallen from “more than a third of all private-sector workers belonging unions in the 1950s to fewer than 7 percent today” (Reich) and that because of this…

Should the American government redistribute wealth? This is one of the many issues we are facing as a country today. “There are two sides to every story", as people quote often and that's the way it is in politics also. There are advantages and disadvantages to redistributing the wealth in the United States.

on, the UN would still use his name in their annual rankings of nations. "The Gini coefficient provides an index to measure inequality," says Antonio Cabrales, a professor of economics at University College London. It is a way of comparing how distribution of income in a society compares with a similar society in which everyone earned exactly the same amount. Inequality on the Gini scale is measured between 0, where everybody is equal, and 1, where all the country's…

At Atlantis Vision Center in Indian Harbour Beach, FL, we often get common, yet important, eye care questions. One such inquiry is the meaning behind the term “20/20 vision.” This term expresses normal visual acuity (in other words, the sharpness, or clarity, of vision) measured at a distance of 20 feet. People with 20/20 vision can clearly see the objects that should normally be seen at 20 feet. However, 20/20 does not necessarily mean perfect vision. The term only indicates the sharpness…

A person's wealth is based on the difference between his or her financial assets such as; a home, car, or businesses and also the amount of debts they have (Fry & Kochhar, 2015). To determine a person's wealth it is important to look at that individual's annual wages, interests, profits, and other sources of earnings (Fry & Kochhar, 2015).

Income inequality is the unequal income brought in by people who hold the same position. This is based off of gender, education, or even a person’s social status (Investopedia). In the United States, income inequality can be seen in all fifty states (Sommeiller and Price). Not only is income inequality present in every state, but it has been seen in the federal government as taxes are based on income. Depending on how much a person makes, tax percentages can vary a person’s state or federal…
