Abstract: Our analysis offers a different rationale for the failure of the Atkinson-Stiglitz theorem than that of Naito (1999). Moreover, our results are in sharp contrast to those of Saez (2004) and Scheuer (2012), who considers an occupational choice model where workers have heterogeneous idiosyncratic preferences for occupations but homogenous skills.
