The past 10 years, the economy growth rate of China has attracted worldwide attention and the capita income of residents is continuous improvement, at the same time ,the issue of the income gap in China has gradually emerged. The income gap mainly in the following aspects performance more prominent: the Gini coefficient was expanding trend, the income gap between different sectors of the growing , industry income gap is widening, the differences between the regions growing. Excessive income gap is the inequitable distribution of income as a direct result of performance and prominent, as all sectors of the community are the issues of greatest concern, if not properly dealt with the problem of income disparity, it is bound to the socio-economic development and people's hearts normal balance and stability is an ignore the negative impact. All of these may result in a harmonious and stable negative impact on the economic development of the negative impact on the social and psychological negative impact on the negative impact of the reform process, the impact on low-income residents in investment in human capital.The theoretical circles on the issue of impact on the distribution of income and have more in-depth analysis from the perspective of a variety of different factors on the impact of the income distribution. Impact of the distribution of income in the various factors, human capital is not to be ignored one of the important factors, as a direct impact on human capital personal income levels. In the modern economic system, the human capital has become an important factor of production. The stocks of human capital and the income level of workers showed a significant positive correlation between the stocks of human capital, the higher the income level of workers. Therefore, the emphasis on human capital investment is to narrow the income gap between an important means. Since low income, investment of low-income residents in education and health was significantly lower than the average level of the residents. The income gap between residents of low-income residents a direct result of inadequate investment in human capital, the final form of investment in education level and income level of the cycle. The low level of income, so the low level of investment in education, low levels of education leads to low employment competitiveness, employment competitiveness of the low-lead low level ofincome, thus caught in a vicious circle.However, there are indications that, the only study of human capital in the distribution of income is not enough to impact, called the concept of social capital has entered people's vision. In this paper, in human capital in the distribution of income on the basis of the introduction of the social capital of this factor, the analysis of how social capital have an impact on the human capital and human capital through the role of the ultimate impact of the income distribution, have led to a widening gap in income, finally come to human capital and social capital on the double impact of the income gap.In this paper, human capital and social capital on the impact of Chinese income distribution study, the first from the theoretical analysis, and then based on theories of human capital, social capital theory, the family as the basic unit survey used to collect survey data. I use five variables of the network size, social participation, trust, network structures, political and geographical factors family measuring social capital, and Empirical Analysis of the households in the stock of human capital, the social capital stock and the relationship with the family income.
