这份白皮书提供了1969年至2012年美国各经济部门收入不平等的衡量标准，以及1969年至2007年各州收入不平等的衡量标准。这些措施可以对不平等的变化进行详细分解，突出相对的主要赢家和输家。它们说明了金融部门、科技繁荣、战时公共支出和房地产泡沫在推动美国经济不平等演变方面所发挥的作用。
This paper provides measures of earnings inequality in the United States across economic sectors, measured within states, from 1969 through 2012, and of income inequality across counties, from 1969 through 2007. These measures permit detailed decomposition of changes in inequality, highlighting the major gainers and losers in relative terms. They illustrate the roles played by the financial sector, by the technology boom, by war-time public spending and by the real estate bubble in driving the evolution of economic inequality in the United States.
