The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 94,033 Bottle caps, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 400,690 per year while the poor average 14,190, a ratio of 28.2 to 1.
