Income Inequality Debate Student Activities | Debate

This panel will explain how income inequality is measured, its causes, and what, if any, public policies should be used to help reduce it. The panel will also explore the question of whether or not income inequality is an accurate measure of economic inequality. Not everyone agrees that income inequality is an accurate measure of broad-based economic growth and some argue that the steps often recommended to address the issue would actually hurt the poor rather than help them.
