(WASHINGTON POST)  Matt O’Brien October 22, 2015 — Inequality actually fell in a slight majority of countries between the early and late 2000s.

Inequality is a choice that most countries don’t make.

That, at least, is what the World Bank’s latest numbers show. It turns out inequality actually fell in a slight majority of countries between the early and late 2000s. Now, you might have expected this to be even higher given that the global financial crisis hurt the rich more than the rest, but it’s still been true in the time since.
