Progressive taxation policies will reduce the gap. - The differences in wage between low and high skilled labour. - The level of discrimination against different groups of workers. - Regional differences in earnings. - Unsalaried individuals depending on state benefits. ## Inequality of Wealth and Income In a market economy, the spread of wealth is usually more unevenly distributed than the spread of incomes. ### Income inequality ![Income inequality](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-08/e27b68ac-31d7-4a88-8947-e008713298e5/coins-1726618_1920.jpg) - Incomes are the payments for factors of production. For most people, their wages are their primary incomes. - In a market economy, different people get different wages based on the jobs they have. Each person then spends money on the basic costs of survival (needs, the cost of which are the same for each person) and then spends a proportion of what is left on wants. ### Wealth inequality ![Wealth inequality](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-07/22c0ba7c-826d-44b2-abe9-dea07dae9e6e/poverty-wallet.jpg) - The money that a person does not spend is saved and accrues as wealth. - Over time the person on the higher income gains wealth quickly compared to the middle income, with the low-income person acquiring very little wealth at all. - In the UK, wealth is distributed more unequally than income. This is because differences in income can compound over years and over generations if wealth is passed on through families. ## Test yourself on Inequality - Enrique Iglesias is estimated to have $100M in stocks, bonds, cash and other real estate assets. How are all of these assets best described? - Which of these is most likely to reduce the level of inequality of wealth in the UK? - Which of these is most likely to increase the level of inequality of wealth in the UK?
