  • The top 10% of the population now accounts for over 50% of all economic activity. They have a level of income and reserved cash that is hard to comprehend and that just starts at $250,000 US salary and goes up from there.
    Those people are spending so freely and so completely it’s practically the entire economy and we are forced to compare ourselves to them.

    The extra annoying part is that in a population of 350million people in the US, 10% is still about 35 million people. So there is more than enough of them to compare to and for companies to aim at.

    The 90% of us are the working poor and it’s not that others are stretching their money more they either just don’t notice or care to look or have decided they have enough to spend freely without any consideration of whether they can afford it.








  • Last I checked school teachers didn’t make medical diagnoses

    Then you are not paying attention to the American school system. Qualified to? Oh most certainly not, but doing it anyway. Heck my 5 year old sister is being diagnosed with just about everything the teachers can offer to the point that there is now a discussion on what tranquilizer to prescribe her without yet talking to a doctor.

    We are fucked. Let’s at least call out the guy that clearly has an IQ from drug abuse to be qualified as retarded so and you can get upset at my slur of calling him a man-child instead.
