@polishXcellence https://t.co/dxcgZHtpof The share of income caused by common (shared between siblings) environment is 10% at most. If your idea were true the gap would have vanished 1-2 generations after the economic ostracization.

@fsanchez1983 Yup, plenty of studies on it. Here's one: https://t.co/SpSRKvpkhi

Journal of Economic Inequality: Using twenty years of earnings data on Finnish twins, we find that about 40% of the variance of women’s and little more than half of men’s lifetime labour earnings are linked to genetic factors. https://t.co/WSsfHvb6DK

@AlexGiannelis @cremieuxrecueil But shared environmental influences on lifetime earnings are much lower than for EA (see e.g. https://t.co/glViuKBz1T ). This striking discrepancy was noted by Freese & Jao 2017 here: https://t.co/dsJXIEvhTl. Jeremy Free

Compare that income heritability to previous results: https://t.co/AAWwpLue3v Is China unique? Is this sample bad? Has China not gotten over the stage of development where status has a lot of randomness?

@captgouda24 @besttrousers @ShakedDown Hytinnen et al. had a miniature review in their study of the heritability of lifetime earnings: https://t.co/juu29TDDZL In their data, an AE model fit better than either the ACE or ADE models and they found A's of 0.

School funding in the US is already mildly progressive, but parental SES has negligible effects on lifetime income in any case. Congratulations: we already live in the opportunity utopia. This is as good as it gets. https://t.co/0b0fCSCIjC https://t.co

@ThiefPenitent @Theo_TJ_Jordan I hate to be the cracked record here, but the bulk of evidence from studies that control for genetic factors is that SES has minimal impact on lifetime income. https://t.co/uQOM4IZiXj
