The juicier part of these apples seems to be the x axis. I kinda thought doctors kids tended to be doctors, which would bias their childhood income upward - but no such bias is observed - just a great way for the apple to end up far from the tree. The "first responders" public-sector-union crowd seems to be a great way for the apple to gain distance from the tree as well.
Yet another shocking study showing the most brilliant in law and finance stay that way or at worst become professionals and scholars, the low-IQ stay that way, and those held back in one generation go forward into the next via e.g. business and the professions. Who knew?
