Offer: Quaternary Income:
In addition to the inequality coefficient (Ginny), it is also advisable to use the income growth rate of the 25% population level - instead of the median income.
- Such that 25% of the population has an income below it, 75% - above it.
The proposed indicator is important - to reduce economic polarization in society, and the growth of political democracy.
Benefits of the proposed indicator:
For authoritarian countries, the phenomenon of `` Absolute impoverishment '' is characteristic - a decrease in the population's income to the brink of social instability.
Namely, a decrease in the incomes of the poorest part of the population, but not the poorest, which, as a rule, falls into the margins - parasites, alcoholics and petty criminals.
The incomes of the poorest part of the population determine social sustainability.

myth: Average salary:
When I posted an ad: `` Required for a job, and indicated the minimum wage (≈ $ 100), then continuous calls to the phone number indicated in the ad started right there. More than 50 people called in total & quot;
At the same time, the official average salary is ≈500 $ - in the city.
True, somewhere they quietly officially admitted, in response to criticism, that the median salary is ≈250 $, and also that many low-paid workers in the non-public sector are not taken into account.
It also does not take into account the huge share of the `` self-employed '', actually unemployed.
myth: Economic growth:
Trump in the US brags about economic growth.
However, he is caught in juggling. - The standard of living of many categories of citizens, on the contrary, decreased - during his reign.
