Personally, I wouldn't want it shared with the world. The people/organizations you have listed are somewhat trusted entities.
Income data can be used for a slew of criminal activity. I wonder if you can correlate the release of the data with burglaries or other crimes spiking in the relatively wealthier households, compared to their neighbors.
