Opinions on societal inequalities in Belgium 2019
A small part of the population owns nearly half of the world's wealth. Although inequalities are generally fought against, they remain part of today's society. According to this Ipsos survey, in 2019, Belgians believe society favors the rich and powerful.
If over two-thirds of respondents believe this to be true, nine percent of them disagree with the statement. Furthermore, 16 percent of Belgians neither agree nor disagree with such an assumption.
Distribution of wealth is one variety of economic inequality. In Belgium, inequality is a sensitive subject, its numbers and evolution are hard to define. Yet the feeling that society advantages rich people seems widely shared in the country.
