This document is page 24 of a Standard & Poor's economic research report dated August 5, 2014, titled 'How Increasing Income Inequality Is Dampening U.S. Economic Growth.' It consists of a bibliography listing references (23 through 42) from various academic and economic sources, including the Census Bureau, Brookings Institution, and NBER. The document bears the Bates stamp 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_025786', indicating it was part of a document production for the House Oversight Committee, likely related to investigations involving financial institutions.
This document explores how income inequality negatively impacts U.S. economic growth by reducing aggregate demand, noting that lower-income households have a higher marginal propensity to consume but face borrowing constraints. It cites research indicating that overleveraging by low-income households contributed to the 2008 financial crisis and that the subsequent recovery has been slow due to significant wealth loss among the middle class compared to the top 10% of earners.
