New Republic про inequality

Внезапное открытие:

The facts revealed in our study should change views. Inequality, properly measured, is extremely high, but is far lower than generally believed. The reason is that our fiscal system, properly measured, is highly progressive. And, via our high marginal taxes, we are providing significant incentives to Americans to work less and earn less than they might otherwise.

Окакзывается, налоговая система уже такая прогрессивная, что дальше некуда. То есть есть куда, разумеется, но будет хуже. А никто и не догадывался, ага.
