Inequality constricts growth by …
• Obstructing the supply of people and ideas into the economy and limiting opportunity for those not already at the top, which slows productivity growth over time.
• Subverting the institutions that manage the market, making our political system ineffective and our markets dysfunctional.
• Distorting demand through its effects on consumption and investment; which both drags down and destabilizes short- and long-term growth in economic output.
