This article (via Manan Shukla) looks at what Americans know about the level of inequality and it finds that they are poorly informed about it and that their ideal distribution would be more equal. There are some discussions by a selected group of commentators with different outlooks, but the comments to this article show that opinions on this topic are all over the map. It would be more helpful to examine the sources of rising inequality and to also look at policies that may have contributed to the rise in inequality. Inequality is not the issue. The rise in inequality should be our concern.
