Not Your Cup of Chai:

Since I am kind of convinced it is true, so I will just try to prove it head-on. If it doesn’t work out, a contradiction will be generated, and we could prove it by contradiction.

Here I need to remind myself not to take an example as a proof (e.g. “Cuppa is poor, ergo life is not fair and the society is M-shape.”). Can we take the GDP or average income of a particular country and start from there? Nope, because the income disparities will be canceled out and averaged.

How about this: Some governments will release data on household income, and it is a good starting point. Do note absolute numbers usually mean nothing, we need to note the trend, the nascent trails….
