Right, and I'm definitely grateful to
Chgogal for the heads up on
the Lance Roberts piece because now I know about
the fed's SCF --which is exactly what I'm talking about. When the fed tot's up say, deposit accounts, the numbers are super easy to find and download. The SCF files are a mess and my guess is that the reason for the mess is that the topic is a hot-button faction battleground right in there w/ global warming.
For decades the census.gov has worked with income distribution and their results supported the same old leftwing rich>richer+poor>poorer line --but the results were based on data that contradicted themselves as well as those of other agencies. In the mean time all I can say is it's just like global warming; the burden of proof is on the advocate and so far he's failed to present a credible case.
