  • Describe the social variables and determinants that are impacted by economic inequality.
  • Where does the United States rank in terms of economic inequality and in terms of the prevalence of some of these issues?
  • Does any of this data surprise you? Do you agree with Wilkinson? Has your thinking changed since we discussed this briefly in Module Two?

Justify your answers with data from your reading and research.

For additional details, please refer to the Module Eight Journal Guidelines and Rubric document in the Assignment Guidelines and Rubrics section of the course.

Why or why not?
