- NoImmatureAdHom 5y agoGermany is 87% not just white but European white. 74% of those are ethnic Germans. Gini is 0.816 Canada is 72.9% European white and Gini is 0.728 The U.S. is 60% non-Hispanic white and Gini is 0.852 These numbers don't capture everything (e.g., distribution going in to Gini is important), but they do capture a lot. I think the conversation could do without the race-baiting, too :-( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Germany#Demographic_statistics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Germany#Demogr... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_wealth_inequality https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_wealth_in... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_and_ethnicity_in_the_United_States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_and_ethnicity_in_the_Unit... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Canada https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Canada
