I think that it is best to keep the discussion focused on working
mens' wages as opposed to income which includes dividends, interest,
capital gains, unincorporated business income, etc. I think this
is why what Lester Thurow had to say diverges so much from the
income statistic tables of the U.S. Bureau of the Census. It is
also advisable to exclude the wages of top earners such as top
corporate executives, Oprah Winfrey, sports stars, etc.
