    QOL 2005, last time they did the survey. Don't know where Aqua's data is from. I made the graph just before I posted it.

    Here's something what I found:
    This is rather a limited graph. Most truly serious income disparity happens in Latin America and Africa. This list appears only to include more "developed" nations.

    While I recognize that there is a fairly serious wealth distribution issue in the United States living in Mexico makes it seem quite trivial.
