If income distributions of 3 decades after WWII (1945-1974) remained, the aggregate annual income of Americans earning below 90th percentile would have been enough to more than double median income. Pay every working Am additional $1,144 a month. Every month. Every year. Instead, $$$ went to rich.

How Often Do Health Insurers Say No to Patients? No One Knows.
Insurers’ denial rates — a critical measure of how reliably they pay for customers’ care — remain mostly secret to the public. Federal and state regulators have done little to change that.
