This lecture explores the relationship between economic growth and inequality, discussing how growth primarily benefits the wealthiest individuals and the importance of measuring growth in median income. The lecture also covers the concept of the Kuznets Curve, which suggests that inequality initially increases with growth but eventually decreases. Various data sets and graphs are presented to illustrate the trends in income distribution and inequality over time.
