61. America's Second Gilded Age: Archive Entry From Brad DeLong's Webjournal and more enduring call it the gilded age - pattern of about income inequality amongthe us middle classes you want to bring some mobiity studies, bring them http://www.j-bradford-delong.net/movable_type/archives/001477.html

Semi-Daily Journal Brad DeLong's Thoughts of the Moment on Economics, and on Other Topics as Well DeLong's Home Page Main Journal Page January 25, 2003 America's Second Gilded Age Project Syndicate: America's Second Gilded Age : J. Bradford DeLong : November 2002 The richest Congressional district in the US is the so-called "silk-stocking" district of New York City's Upper East Side, with a per-capita income of $41,151 per year. The poorest Congressional district is a largely Hispanic-immigrant district in Los Angeles, with a per-capita income of $6,997 a year. In 1973 the poorest fifth of America's families had incomes that averaged $13,240 a year (in today's dollars); in 2000 the average incomes of the poorest fifth were the same: $13,320. By contrast, the richest 5% of America's families in 1973 had an average income of $149,150, and in 2000 the richest 5% had an average income of $254,840. The increase in inequality was large enough to give a 2/3 income boost to the well-off over a time when incomes in the middle grew by only 10% and incomes at the bottom not at all. (Statistics, however, that are sensitively dependent on how one measures consumer price inflation.) To outsiders, the most peculiar thing about America's rising inequality is that so few Americans object. Surely a society with a skewed income distribution is worse off than one in which incomes are more equal. An extra $10,000 a year does little to raise the well-being of a multi-millionaire, while a deficiency of $10,000 a year makes a huge impact on how a middle-class family lives.

As they approached adulthood, around 1890, the student missionary movement was launched and protests and labor violence was the norm. This cultural bonfire of a spiritual event lasted until just after the turn of the century. Many of our present religious groups trace their roots to those times. The modern women's movement, temperance and the labor movements also began then. A civil generation, the G.I.'s, emerged from those turbulent times to conquer the Great Depression and to fight the greatest war, WWII.

ABOUT US Our Location: Corporate Headquarters: 5065 State Street #182 Saginaw, MI 48603 Toll Free Number: 877-329-3784 West Coast Manufacturing North Las Vegas, NV Back to Top Our E-mail: Any questions, comments or suggestions can be e-mailed to us by selecting the following link: Back to Top Our Mission: The mission of the Gilded Leaf Company is to reintroduce the elegance of the gilded age by making various gilded architectural accents available in numerous sizes and styles from various architectural periods. Back to Top Our Philosophy: The utmost care goes into the creation of each gilded and hand-painted element. It has been said that the angels on the cherub medallion are so life-like, they look like they could speak to you. Gilding is a very labor intensive, time-honored tradition that requires meticulous attention to detail. There have been suggestions to speed-up the process using faux finishes or composition leaf for the sake of profitability, but we will not compromise quality for profits. Composition leaf, sometimes called composition gold or Dutch metal, consists of approximately 85% copper and 15% zinc and does NOT contain any gold. The use of composition leaf would be deceptive and is not acceptable, except as a specific request by a client. There is a very noticeable difference between real gold verses composition leaf and the composition leaf will tarnish (turn black as it oxidizes). Back to Top Our Staff: Delbert T. (Tom) Newkirk, President: is at the North Las Vegas Manufacturing Center and has been in the construction business for over 25 years. His passion, however, has been with the fine arts and gilding since his first art class in college. His art studies include courses at the Center for Creative Studies College of Art and Design in Detroit MI and portraiture painting under professional artist Daniel Greene in his Salem, NY studio. Tom has been gilding ceiling medallions for several years.
