Income Distribution : Stagnant or Mobile?

Popular discussion of income and wealth distribution tend to focus on snapshots of distribution at a given moment in time, making it appear more unequal than it really is. This paper looks at mobility in and out of income and wealth distribution classes. It finds that all empirical measures of mobility show that it is high, thus mitigating the impact of inequality to a large extent
