- Wealth inequality in the United States has increased dramatically since the 1980s, with a top 1% wealth share of approx. 40% in 2016 versus 25–30% in the 1980s. These estimates may however substantially underestimate the wealth of the 1% due to tax evasion and other measures to obscure wealth. https://www.annualreviews.org/doi/abs/10.1146/annurev-economics-080218-025852 3 comments science
