This was apparently published in the Financial Times according to http://www.commondreams.org/headlines06/1206-01.htm
"The concentration of wealth in different countries varies considerably, with the top 10 per cent in the US holding 70 per cent of the country’s wealth, compared with 61 per cent in France, 56 per cent in the UK, 44 per cent in Germany and 39 per cent in Japan."
According to them, wealth disparity is greater in the US than it is in France, the UK, Germany, and Japan.
Do you believe it? What are your thoughts on these statistics?
