Figure Legend:
Gini coefficients showing income inequality for selected countries from 1950 to Source: Historical data from Ref. [49], with projections by author. Average projection is quadratic (R2 = 0.20) and represents mean of 187 countries. Individual country projections are either linear or quadratic and their R2 range from 0.17 (China) to 0.95 (USA). A higher Gini coefficient indicates more inequality. A hypothetical “Equity” scenario for the world, not based on curve fitting, is also shown to suggest an alternative trajectory.
