Also, take a look at the USA in the last chart. Look closely at the numbers. There are 3 bars, but only two of them have numbers, and those numbers add to 100%. That's right. The share of the bottom 50% of people, ranked by income, ROUNDS TO ZERO. No other country does that worse than the good ol' USA.

Gives a whole new meaning to, "Stop the steal!" doesn't it?

Data from World Inequality Report also showed top 10% of income-earners earn more than the other 90%
