However, at $31,000, the U.S. has the second – highest average  household income after taxes and benefits in the OECD, after Luxembourg.  But U.S. income is distributed relatively unequally, with both the  fourth – highest rate of income inequality and relative poverty (17.3  percent of people are poor compared to an OECD average of 11.1 percent)  in the OECD. People in the U.S. have a life expectancy of 77.9 years,  lower than the OECD average of 79.3 years, despite having the highest  public and private spending on health at 16 percent of GDP, considerably  higher than the OECD average of 9 percent. </blockquote>
