In the first chapter, I analyze the evolution of income inequality in the United States from the 1950s to present. I show that the share of national income going to those in the upper reaches of the income ladder has increased considerably over the last three and a half decades, and that explaining the change in top wage incomes, which predominately include non-financial sector CEO remuneration, is central to understanding these changes. I also explore SBTC—the theory for the increase in wage income inequality which, at least until recently, has the most support from economists and politicians. Finding SBTC lacking, I end the chapter in suspense. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
