Income inequality has dramatically worsened in the U.S. over the past 40 years.
|
In fact, a report found that the United States' income inequality was more in line with poor and politically unstable developing countries than with similar developed and wealthy nations – and that was before American billionaires raked in an additional $1.7 trillion during the pandemic.
|
This massive inequality is the product of decades of trickle-down laws that have helped make the top 1% even richer while the minimum wage stagnates, the social safety net is ripped apart, and our economy suffers.
|
Our team at Civic Action is dedicated to fighting trickle-down nonsense – and we recently sent you an email about reversing income inequality, so we know you’re more knowledgeable than the average Joe on this issue. That’s why we created a special quiz to test your knowledge on economic policies that are good for everyone – not just the top 1%.
