Seize ans plus tard, le quintile inférieur a perdu 14 p. 100 de son revenu, le deuxième quintile, 12 p. 100 et le troisième quintile, 6 p. 100. Enfin, la classe moyenne supérieure, elle, a vu son revenu augmenter d'un misérable 2 p. 100 en 16 ans.
Sixteen years after the fact, we have the bottom quintile at minus 14%, the second quintile at minus 12% and the third quintile at minus 6%. Finally, when we move to the upper middle income bracket, toward the top end, their incomes grew by a paltry 2% in 16 years.
