India’s inequality gap has widened sharply under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s decade in power, with the richest 1% of the population now owning 40% of the country’s wealth, a new study found.
For quality, I think it would be quite sensible to include figures from a few other countries. These findings mean very little when they lack context; we need to know how they compare to other big economies like the US, UK, Germany, Italy, Russia, China (if you can get accurate data on Russia and China), and Japan.
Probably was not much different. My guess is it jumped from like 35% to like 40%. Important thing I see is GDP per capita is growing steadily, wish there was something government was doing to combat equality more, but I don't trust for a second alternative government's would address this either.
Idk about ya'll, but I see no shortage of useful idiots proud to sell themselves out to avoid conflict with the ruling class or their cognitive dissonance.
