4 Slide 4 of 31 Why the interest in income inequality? Thomas Piketty and Capital in the 21 st Century Public increasingly concerned about wealth gap Public confidence in economy waning, ego opportunity viewed as finite or zero sum game The extent of and continuing increase in inequality in the United States greatly concerns me...i think it is appropriate to ask if this trend is compatible with values rooted in our nation's history, among them the high value Americans have traditionally placed on equality of opportunity Janet Yellen, Federal Reserve Chairwoman
5 Slide 5 of 20 Is income inequality bad for population health?
6 Slide 6 of 31 Previous Literature Higher income inequality associated with all cause mortality, self rated health, depressive symptoms, hypertension, smoking, BMI, disability status Sensitive to geographic scale and lag effects Strongest evidence of association at state level Evidence of 15+ year time lag
7 Slide 7 of 31 A Theory of SES, SES Inequality and Health Health Income ($1,000) If $10,000 is transferred from individual with income=$80,000 and health=95 to individual with income=$20,000 and health=50, Population health gain of 15 (health income=$70,000+ health income=$30,000; (94+66) (95+50)=15) Adapted from Subramanian and Kawachi, Epidemiol Rev 2004

11 Slide 11 of 31 Gini Index Shortcomings Viable data U.S. Census: household, gross income (but has whole distribution) IRS: left truncated of (but IRS can account for redistributive tax systems [net income]) More sensitive to change in middle incomes Non decomposable inequality in every subgroup does not necessarily lead to Gini

27 Slide 27 of 31 Conclusions and Discussion Donald Patrick
28 Slide 28 of 31 Conclusions Internationally, higher income inequality higher infant mortality In the US, income inequality has steadily risen over the last 40 years In the US, income inequality is not consistently associated with infant mortality disparities by race in different time epochs In WASHINGTON STATE, income inequality not consistently associated health indicators in multilevel analyses HOWEVER< lower SES indicators (poverty, median income, and education) are associated with poor/fair health at both a county and individual level Multilevel studies of income inequality are difficult or impractical yet Income inequality is important to our notions of equity and justice
29 Slide 29 of 31 Policy Implications Interventions at policy and individual level may be best directed toward reducing poverty and increasing education for all Distributive Justness: John Rawls Each person as an equal right to the most extensive basic liberty compatible with a similar liberty for others Social and economic inequalities are to be arranged so they are to the greatest benefit to the least advantaged members of society
