Abstract: From the mid-1940s through the mid-1970s, the US economy grew rapidly and that growth produced rising wages and household incomes up and down the distribution. Since the late 1970s, by contrast, the United States has been perhaps the paradigm case of non-inclusive growth. Economic growth has remained fairly rapid, but the income from that growth has been distributed very unevenly across households, with a large share going to the top 1 percent. . .
