41. "The United States suffers from greater earnings and income inequality,higher poverty rates and lower poverty exits than almost every other OECD economy. Due to the highly unequal distribution of income in the United States, low-wage workers and low-income households are almost universally worse off in absolute terms than their low-wage, low-income counterparts in other, less affluent OECD countries... There is less mobility out of poverty in the United States than in other nations. Poverty is deeper and harder to escape ... and much less is available in the way of adequate social policy relative to other OECD countries."
