Description: Decomposition of (income) inequality by population sub groups. 
    For a decomposition on a single variable the mean log deviation can be used
      (see Mookherjee Shorrocks (1982) <DOI:10.2307/2232673>).
    For a decomposition on multiple variables a regression based technique can be 
      used (see Fields (2003) <DOI:10.1016/s0147-9121(03)22001-x>).
    Recentered influence function regression for marginal effects of the (income 
      or wealth) distribution  (see Firpo et al. (2009) <DOI:10.3982/ECTA6822>).
    Some extensions to inequality functions to handle weights and/or missings.
