Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the personal distribution of income in the United States, with a specific focus on the period from 1913 to 1928. By delving into tax returns and other financial data, the author aims to construct a precise frequency curve that illustrates how income was distributed at different levels of society during this time. The author argues that such an examination is essential for understanding the historical context of income inequality and its impact on economic policies. The data presented demonstrates the significant disparities in income distribution, with the wealthiest individuals earning a disproportionately large share compared to the majority of the population. The book also explores the effects of factors like wages, profits, and investments on the overall income distribution. The author's analysis offers valuable insights into the complexities of income distribution and highlights the need for informed public debate and policy interventions to address economic disparities.
