COMMENTARY     

Justin (Ohio)
26th September 2006 		People have to click a special button to view the rest of this list, apparently to keep the world from knowing the facts about Israel. The income gap there is a scandal for such a highly developed Western nation.
Bill (Iowa)
25th April 2007 		This table is completely wrong. By definition, the medium income would have EXACTLY HALF the people below it and EXACTLY HALF above it.
Dan (Ohio)
14th May 2007 		The table is those below 50% of median income, which is a common definition of poverty.
