I’m studying for my Economics class and need an explanation.

Describe how a country can measure its income inequality.

• Evaluate the effect of income inequality on the U.S. economy, such as unemployment, economic growth, and other economic factors.
• Estimate the gap between those who hold bachelor’s and higher (master or doctoral) degrees and those who do not.
• Explain reasons why the inequality gap between educated and less-educated workers has been widening.
• Evaluate whether increasing opportunities for higher education can reduce income inequality.
• Analyze what else causes U.S. income inequality to widen.
• Recommend how to reduce educationally based income inequality or other factors if you were a federal policy maker.
