This is a really interesting MC question on causes of a shift in a country's Lorenz Curve.
The Lorenz Curve shows the degree of income inequality in a given economy or population. The further away the Lorenz curve from the line of absolute equality (the 45° line), the greater the degree of income inequality. Lorenz curves can also be used to illustrate wealth inequality.
