Who can summarize this paragraph???
Income inequality in the United States has reached its highest peak since the Great Depression (link is external). Americans in the top 1 percent of earners currently make a staggering 40 times as much (link is external) as the bottom 90 percent. Furthermore, in 1978 the top 0.1 percent of the population laid claim to 7 percent of the nation’s wealth. By 2012, that amount had increased to 22 percent (link is external). Across industrialized nations, income inequality has been linked to an array of harmful outcomes, including higher rates of debt (link is external), crime (link is external), mental illness (link is external), and even mortality (link is external). To better understand such correlations, researchers are investigating how economic inequality might influence the behavior of those who are aware of it.

Income inequality of the U.S. has reached the highest peak since the Great Depression. Americans who make 40 times of much are in the top 1% than the bottom 90%. The population in 1978 had 0.1% claim to nearly 7% of the wealth and a 22% increase by 2012. Other nation's income inequality has had an armful of harmful outcomes, debt was also one of the higher rates, crime, and mental illness. Researchers want to understand this better by investigating how his inequality might have an influence of those of know of it. 

I don't know how well it is. Kinda hard to summarize this. Hope I at least helped a bit.
