摘要

Hubmer、Krusell和Smith使用异质代理模型来量化自1960年以来美国健康不平等的来源。他们发现，美国税收累进性的大幅下降是美国财富不平等的关键驱动因素。另外两个关键模型特征是（1）允许异质回报和（2）投资组合异质性。我的评论集中在Hubmer等人强调的三个主要决定因素上，我同意这三个决定因素非常重要，然后讨论了健康不平等的其他一些驱动因素，这些驱动因素被列为第一级，值得在未来的工作中进行更多的分析和讨论。

Comment

Hubmer, Krusell, and Smith use a heterogeneous agent model to quantify the sources ofwealth inequality in the United States since 1960. They find that the substantial decline of US tax progressivity is a key driver of wealth inequality in the United States. Two other keymodel features are (1) allowing for heterogeneous returns and (2) portfolio heterogeneity. My comments focus on the threemain determinants thatHubmer et al. emphasize, which I agree are quite important, and then discuss a few other drivers ofwealth inequality that strikeme asfirst order andworthy of more analysis and discussion in future work.
