Sen. Elizabeth Warren unveiled a $700 billion universal childcare plan on Tuesday. Her plan, cosponsored by Rep. Mondaire Jones, would ensure no family pays more than 7% of income on childcare.

Mr Edwards said, governments across the world faced a fiscal crisis unless there was greater tax justice when it comes to corporate wealth. He called on the British Government to lead on the introduction of the policy which could be introduced swiftly if G20 States were to agree.

Is rising income inequality just an illusion?

© iStock One of the Biden administration’s top priorities is to tackle income inequality in the United States. It stems from a widely held view that the gap between rich and poor has widened steadily since the 1980s when the Reagan administration cut the highest marginal tax rate from 70 percent to 28 percent.

A recent op-ed by Phil Gramm and John Early asserts that it is an illusion that results from the U.S. Census Bureau failing to account for taxes and transfer payments in its measures. When both items are taken into account, they assert that income inequality is actually lower than it was 50 years ago.
