Scatter plot of 113 countries comparing wealth vs income inequality. The red square is the United States.
The L shape of the scatter plot was not what I expected. However, many countries don’t have a recent Gini index (1987 to 2003) while GDP per capita is available for 2003/2004 for most countries.
Definition of Gini index a measure of income inequality.
0 = equal distrubution
100 = one person has everything
