Global economic inequality: what matters most for your living conditions is not who you are, but where you are
What is most important for how healthy, wealthy, and educated you are is not who you are, but where you are.

Global income inequality is vast. The chart – which shows the world population’s daily incomes adjusted for the price differences across countries – shows this. The huge majority of the world is very poor. The poorer half of the world, almost 4 billion people, live on less than $6.70 a day.
