“In 18th century France, on the eve of the French Revolution (1788), the top 1% controlled 16.8% of the income. This concentration of wealth was one of the factors leading to widespread social unrest.”
“At the end of 2024, the top 1% of households owned 31% of the nation's assets” US Federal Reserve
