Sorry, Clyde, but I'm not "jealous" of anyone here, or anywhere else,

As what was already said, it is clear you are about equal outcomes in
place of equal opportunity.

Hell, the USA is the most equal opportunity place on the planet.

more right wing bull****. i'm a scientist and go with the evidence.
the GINI coefficient is a measure of how equally income is distributed
among economic groups

guess which, of 26 countries, has the worst GINI coefficient

you right whiners. you have your bull**** mythology. and that's all
you need.

Tell me, besides the slums where you live, have you ever lived outside
of the county/state/USA??? Or did the 5 days in Mexico Holiday Inn make
you an international expert?

Not likely, because your mind is too narrow and single dimensional. So
focused on envy and self pity.

I am sure I can come up with all sorts of bull**** stats to say anything
I want. I looked at the GINI coefficient thing once an all I saw was
bull****. So what about the disparity...that has nothing to do with
happyness and wealth.

But I am game to do GINI. The three largest economies in the world, US,
India and China are both mid-pack in their ratings. They employ more
people, more production and higher standard of living than the rest of
world save for a few pockets of smaller populated areas.

Canada with 0.5% of the worlds population and the 2nd largest country in
the world, you don't see it as a top of the line for immigration. We
let in what the US rejects.

Canada, not as many "rich" as they move offshore to escape the punative
taxes. Taking their wealth with them. Most people in Canada go to work
and don't give a ****, low motivation. Hell, I get paid the same as my
counter part, why should I put out extra? It develops lethargy.

I would rather look at a crime and weather maps to look for where to
live. Hell, I could have stayed in low GINI coefcient Norway if I
wanted, better coefficient than Canada even. But it was a suffocating,
frozen wasteland and people didn't have the money to enjoy life. One
bar in a city of 110,000 people. Fortunately my assignment there was
only 1 year.

But GINI be your model as you are motivated by envy and greed of other
peoples wealth. Persoanlly, when someone with more money that I moves
in next door I am happier than a pig in **** because it keeps the
neighborhood up.
