Most assume that Americans care little about income inequality, believe opportunities abound, admire the rich and dislike redistributive policies. Leslie McCall contends that such assumptions are based on both incomplete survey data and economic conditions of the past and not present. Her book reveals that Americans have desired less inequality for decades and explains why.
