BERKELEY – America’s economy grew much more rapidly than expected in 2013 and appears poised to strengthen further this year. But there is still considerable slack in the labor market, and, as long as it persists, the gains from faster growth will continue to be concentrated at the top of the income distribution, as they have been throughout the recovery.
伯克利—2013年美国经济增长比预期快很多，今年似乎会进一步走强。但劳动力市场仍然颓势尽显，而只要这一状况得不到改善，增长加速的好处就会继续向收入分布顶层集中——在整个复苏过程中一直都是这样。
