About This Event
New data reveals that top incomes were lower--in relative dollars--at the end of the twentieth century than at the beginning. A study conducted by Emmanuel Saez, a professor of public economics at Harvard University, has found that great shocks to these top incomes during the Great Depression and World War II have had a permanent effect. At this discussion Saez will suggest that steeply progressive income taxation may explain this trend. William Gale and Marvin H. Kosters will respond.
