I stumbled on this article, a few months ago, maybe a year or two ago. Some of it is obviously bunk, but I can't dismiss all of it so quickly. Basically it's about income distribution, arguing that income is distributed more evenly in America than it is popularly said to. Anyone want to take a look at this and see what they think? Obviously it's not the end of the road even if some of it happens to be valid, but it'd still be important to know.

It shows that, on to the middle quintile, there is no even distribution, or am I misinterpreting this?
