Original Note:
The math is wrong. In order for the top 10 households to shift US average household income by $9500, they would need to have a combined income of over 1 trillion dollars per year. In addition, it confuses median household income ($74,500) with average income ($59,430) https://www.census.gov/library/publications/2023/demo/p60-279.html https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MAPAINUSA646N
