And if you look at the data from 2005-2008, you will notice the following income changes between 2005-2008:
lowest = 8.5%
second = 9.6%
third = 9.8%
fourth = 9.8%
top 5% = 8.4%
So actually, the data in that date range contradicts the results of the study, and so that's why it was mysteriously omitted...  |
I don't think so. The study for Bartels was published a few years ago and data was only available up until 2005 and some of that was projected I bet. Like my previous post mentioned though, you probably aren't really interested unless it supports your pre-existing view. Don't take that as an insult, just an observation. You were quick to dismiss it initially without finding out the truth and continued to do so without actually knowing. We could do this all day if you're just going to "suppose" things you don't know one way or the other, but really, why bother?
