Gini coefficient diagram

You can think of the horizontal axis as percent of people and the vertical axis as the percent of income those people receive. Therefore the curves always start and end at the same places, where 0% of people make 0% of the country's income and 100% of people making 100% of the total income. The disparity comes in at the left hand side of the curve where the percent of people is higher than the percent of income they receive (i.e. 10% of the people getting 5% of the total income). And at the right hand side when the percent of income received rises more than the percent of people receiving it.

Licensing

Public domain
The depicted text is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain because it is not a “literary work” or other protected type in sense of the local copyright law. Facts, data, and unoriginal information which is common property without sufficiently creative authorship in a general typeface or basic handwriting, and simple geometric shapes are not protected by copyright. This tag does not generally apply to all images of texts. Particular countries can have different legal definition of the “literary work” as the subject of copyright and different courts' interpretation practices. Some countries protect almost every written work, while other countries protect distinctively artistic or scientific texts and databases only. Extent of creativeness, function and length of the text can be relevant. The copyright protection can be limited to the literary form – the included information itself can be excluded from protection.
