Burgess COMMENTARY

Peter Burgess

Inequality was at record levels in the 1920s ... and then there was the depression of the 1930s

Almost 100 years later, inequality is reaching the same levels and it is not at all clear how this level of wealth can be sustained when the massses do not have the money to buy the products needed to maintian the consumption cycle.
