- W4220772530 abstract "Since the last decades of the twentieth century, there has been a debate on the causes and consequences regarding the rise of inequality in its varied dimensions. Much discussion is dedicated to whether public policies should be aimed at reducing or mitigating the upward trend in inequality. This paper explores empirical evidence regarding the income inequality level that maximizes the per capita consumption of the U.S. economy from 1946 to 2015. Based on the cointegration equations empirical tests, we find a concave nonlinear relation between the log of per capita consumption and the log of the Gini Index. In this context, the optimal level of income inequality is 0.376. In addition, we test whether some determinants of inequality show a nonlinear relationship with the square of the difference between the current Gini index and its optimal level, (Gini – Gini*)2. The relation between (Gini-Gini*)2 and education shows an inverted U-shaped curve in which the threshold value wasn’t reached yet but, once the threshold value is reached, more education consumption could reduce income inequality, which can result in better equality of opportunity for most of the American population. However, the indicators of economic openness, taxes, and financial assets show U-shaped curves. Considering the analyzed period from 1946 to 2015, openness and, taxes have contributed to the increase in inequality since the mid-1970s. Besides, financial assets also have contributed to inequality since 2008. However, from 1946 to about 2007, these financial assets, which include credit, contributed to generating lower income inequality." @default.
