Most impressively, recent research by Raj Chetty and coauthors using tax data finds that areas within the U.S. that have greater income inequality also tend to have less upward mobility for children from low-income families (see graph below). They further find that young children who move to areas with substantial upward mobility tend to reap the benefit of living in those surroundings, suggesting that changes to environmental factors can enhance economic opportunity.
The beacon and the other Fitzgerald symbols are in this movie version, but they communicate about as much as the great stone heads on Easter Island. They're memorials to a novel in which they had meaning. The art director and set decorator seem to have ripped whole pages out of Fitzgerald and gone to work to improve on his descriptions. Daisy and her husband, the ruthless millionaire Tom Buchanan, live almost drowning in whites, yellows, and ennui. Tom's mistress Myrtle and her husband, the shabby filling station owner George, live in a wasteland of ashes in Fitzgerald's novel; in the movie, they seem to have landed on the moon.
The Roaring Twenties, the Jazz Age, and what F. Scott Fitzgerald would later describe as the greatest, gaudiest spree in history have all come to describe America under the influence of Prohibition. In Fitzgeralds novel The Great Gatsby, we are introduced to the opulent lives of wealthy east coasters during one of the rowdiest periods in American history. How accurate is this portrait of Prohibition America, and what influences led our country into an era of drunken excess?
As the demand for illegal liquor increased, so did the methods for masking its production and consumption. Cocktails gained popularityheavily flavored concoctions assembled to disguise the taste of potent bathtub gin with juices, herbs, sweeteners and syrups. Finger food became fashionable, which helped to increase liquor tolerance by ensuring that party-goers werent drinking on an empty stomach. Bootleggers, forced to produce liquor in secret, used questionable methods to ferment gin and other types of alcohol in their homes. Often poisonous ingredients, such as methanol (wood alcohol), were used. A government report from 1927 stated that nearly all of the 480,000 gallons of liquor confiscated in New York that year contained some type of poison. Jamaica ginger extract, also known as Jake, was sold in pharmacies as a headache remedy. It didnt taste great, but it did contain high amounts of alcohol. Over time, more toxic ingredients were added that could result in paralysis, a condition often referred to as Jake Leg.
In short, more inequality at any point in time is associated with a greater transfer of economic status across the generations. In more unequal societies, the poor are more likely to see their children grow up to be the next generation of poor, and the rich are more likely to see their children remain at the top rungs of the economic ladder.
These are important questions because they help us to appreciate the implications of economic inequality and mobility for public policy: How should we think about sliding down the Great Gatsby Curve? Is that desirable? How is it possible? Others can discern how sliding down the Great Gatsby curve may affect the greater economy, but if the reasons include lack of access to opportunity, then the effects on growth could be important.
In America all three of these forces are aligned in a way that reinforces rather than weakens the tie between socioeconomic status and adult outcomes. American families are more diverse in their capacity to invest in and promote the human capital of their children. Labor markets are more unequal, skewing resources and incentives in a way that benefits the relatively rich. And in spite of these greater challenges, public policy does less to level the playing field. Indeed, in some important ways, policies do just the opposite, tilting the playing field to help the more advantaged.

F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby (1925) is one of the best known and most widely read and taught novels in American literature. It is so familiar that even those who have not read it believe that they have and take for granted that they know about its main character and theme of the American Dream. We need to approach The Great Gatsby as if it were new and really read it, paying close attention to Fitzgerald's literary language. His novel gives us a vivid depiction of and insight into income inequality as it existed in the 1920s and, by extension, as it exists today, when the American Dream is even more limited to the fortunate few, not within reach of the many. When we really read The Great Gatsby, we perceive and understand the American dimension of the novel and appreciate, too, the global range and relevance that in it Fitzgerald has achieved. It is a great American book and a great book of world literature.

Ask students if they know of any public figure who used to be powerful or popular, but who has since faded away for one reason or another. As they come up with examples, list them on the board. Then, choose one to focus on (be sure to choose someone who likely didn't wish his/her status to drop): What could he/she have done to have remained in the spotlight? Why did his/her popularity wane? How do you think he/she felt about it?
Then, project (if you have the technology to) this cartoon from Harper's Weekly entitled "Every Dog (No Distinction Of Color) Has His Day," from the EDSITEment-reviewed HarpWeek. The feature says much about class anxiety, anti-immigrant stances, and the protection of old wealth and interests. Ask students to imagine the desires of both the new immigrants and the pre-established. How do you get into a situation where you have such animosity? You might also use the discussion in The New Americans about misconceptions of immigrants for some greater depth. If you wish, you might also walk students through the following timeline, borrowed from The New Americans website:
