What the hell is a "social distribution" ?
Apparently what you are trying to describe. That someone makes it into the Top 1% by effectively bringing someone else who use to belong into that income group down into the bottom 99%. It doesn't work that way, at all.
Now to my initial point, surprisingly no one wants to know how they can be in the Top 1% as well. I would figure that the clowns who are always going off about income disparity would be all over this. It's really that easy...
According to Nicole Lapin of CNN, financial services professionals make up just 14 percent of that top 1 percent of wage earners. Their average salary of $311,000 per year, while quite gaudy, falls just below the threshold needed to break into the highest-earning subset.
To get into the top 1% of Americans you dont need to be a billionaire or millionaire or half-millionaire. The minimum wage earners in that group make about $343k/year .The top 1% of wage earners earn 17% of the nations income. Nicole Lapin, Who the Heck Are the "Top 1%"?!!
In NYC, it is possible for a married couple, both police officers, to make that amount.
Sure it is, if they're on the take.
