Answer:

E. None of the above

Explanation:

The correct answer is none of the above.

In the population of the entire US, you get a high percentage of the money divided among very few people, and most of them are in the lower-middle classes.

The same happens in the population of baseball players(there are the Mike Trout's and Alex Rodrigues' but most of them are near the league minimum or lower than that).

Insurance salespeople, the same thing. Very few are succesful, and a way higher percentage of them fails. If it as a normal distribution, the percentage of people that got high salary would be the same as those who get low.
