Re: take the wealth quiz
Hail, Hail Freedonia!
If any form of pleasure is exibited
Report to me and it will be prohibited
I'll put my foot down, so shall it be
This is the land of the free
The last man nearly ruined this place
He didn't know what to do with it
If you think this country's bad off now,
Just wait 'til I get through with it
The country's taxes must be fixed
And I know what to do with it
If you think you're paying too much now
Just wait till I get throught with it

Shocking.
Shocking that people out there still think it's the job of the US to distribute wealth.

Re: take the wealth quiz
not sure i buy the numbers on sweden. i doubt the poorest fifth actually has 11%. i also suspect the richest fifth has better than 36%, even with their oppressive taxation. but, of course this is PBS and we all know they are above cooking numbers to make the US look evil.

Re: take the wealth quiz
Todd, when was the last time you've been with a woman? Is that something that even interests you? Fuck, even AP can court a chick back to his futon where she sits awkwardly for the next 10 minutes then bolts for the door.
Sorry, AP, that's not what she had in mind when you said you wanted to "get in her panties."
You, on the other hand, I can't see there being much of a market for your type. For some reason women don't go for fat, angry, drunken, ranting, animal torturing loners who fantasize about rape, incest, and pedophilia. Can't imagine why.

Re: take the wealth quiz
Hey MGBl0w, you never have to apologize to me for anything as I invite the reactions for my amusement. This Tardowned thing, and I think he did it in another thread is beyond disturbing. I just do my BS as a release. This dude is fucking crazy!

Re: take the wealth quiz
So... the Tax-The-Rich crowd would overwhelmingly prefer to live in the country where the poor actually pay more of their fair share (Sweden) than live in the country where they think the rich don't pay enough (the USA)
Shocking.
No, really
Shocking.



No, really

Re: take the wealth quiz
KC Kid. Is this KC Kaley? I have no idea. I've never seen that pic before over the last 5 years. True story, one of the few remaining females on this board said it's sad that I prolly look better in those than most of these guys' wives would.
What else do you have KCTard? You have to have something, right?

Re: take the wealth quiz
The Gini Index by itself doesn't work, but then neither does per capita GDP. Put the two together, amongst other indicators (Genuine Progress Indicator, Human Development Index) and you have a fairly accurate indication of how people are living in a country. I don't think you quite understand the ramifications of lack of consumer spending on an economy.88 wrote:What the fuck kind of question is that? I mean, don't you need a little bit more information before you can answer? There is a Gini coefficient often cited for income distribution by country. Wiki it sometime. What you will see is that socialist countries tend to have a more equal distribution of wealth than non-socialist countriesJsc810 wrote:Which place would you like to live in?
* Country A
* Country B
* Country C![]()
But having more equal distribution of wealth is not necessarily an indicator of a great place to live. North Korea, Bosnia and most of the former CCCP countries all have income distributions that are "more equal" than that of the United States. Who gives a giant rat cock?
How much disposable income a population has in a capitalist country does matter, it determines how much demand for goods and services they will be able to assert on the marketplace. There wasn't any demand for consumer goods during the Depression and it's important to make a distinction between demand and need or desire.
People certainly desired consumer goods during the Depression, but because they had no money, they couldn't afford to purchase these consumer goods at a price at which any producer could make a profit. Their desire therefore did not appear on the marketplace as a demand and the system fails.
A collapse of consumer demand, leads to a collapse of industries servicing that demand, which leads to job losses which further fuels the collapse of demand, which leads to more businesses collapsing, which led to more job losses and a further reduction of demand.... and so on.
