You should ask him if "not a good idea" is the political correct way to respond to a dumb idea. Joe might be the dumbest lib on the planet. Before he locked the Israel thread he a asked everyone to explain what the deal was over there, why are these counties even fighting each other. After a kindergarten history lesson of the middle east he spent two pages trying to figure out the best sources for news updates. He has to be autistic.

The article was bad enough, but, dont sell your stupidity short. You sarcastically said: As I just proved it can be, depending on your postion and view. Any type of wealth redistribution that some people advocate for would drive down the median. They want to see it go down.

Look I can explain it to you again, but, I cant make you understand it. Here I'll try one more time by proving it mathematically. 2,3,4,5,6,7,8 Average = 5 . Median = 5 1,1,1,9,10,10,10 Average = 6. Median = 9. So you can see the mean and average can both increase and its not necessarily a good thing for everybody. All the numbers in this case lower than 5 fell lower. There are hints to that actually happening right in the article and I've explained others. Do you really think a 50K income household is better off than they were in 2019? This article sure doesn't prove that. I dont care about poor people, but, kind of surprised you dont.

You don't understand, it's over your head, that's ok. I'll take it a little slower this time. When the average (reported as higher than a million! despite including home values) goes up yet the number of actual millionaires decreases. That mean the rich are getting richer. When the median rises (reported at 190K) and matches almost exactly what the stock market did over that time. That means the middle class, those with retirement plans and stock options, are getting richer. The lower class may be contributing to the median, but, it doesn't matter at all if wages don't exceed inflation, zero. All that means 3 things generally: - Rich are still getting richer and don't feel inflation hardly at all. - Middle class can afford the inflation and hopefully have equity in their properties. Might have to put off retirement a couple years, harder to put a kid through colllege, etc. - Fok the poor. They can't afford inflation and they are extremely screwed for being a home owner any time soon with 8% mortgage rates.

Beat me to it. How in the holy hell?

Did you get your minor in finance the same place as GutterBoy? Keep reading the article dummy, it isn't saying what you think it does: The median only rose because it includes the cost of people's home and properties. Yeah that's good for people who own them. But you can't say that's a good thing going forward with mortgage rates at 8%. Oh then there is this: Only the people flush with cash are getting ahead of everyone else relatively. I'm on board, piles of cash earing 5%+ with zero risk because of inflation, yes please. Fok the poors. Rich getting richer raises the average you're touting.

I think the politically correct term is "Alley Cats"

Love this thread

Garrett changed his name to BeachGuy123

Not gonna lie, after 6 or 7 beers in the theatre during Titanic, when that guy hit the propeller and went flipping sideways . Looked almost like those guys hit by the car. Bursting out laughing when everyone else was crying.

Who cares, it's funny.

I wouldn't protest at night. On a freeway. The comments are awesome.

Almost Halloween folks. Get the decorations up!

Well that would require him to leave the house once in a while dummy.

Biggest organized pedo ring in history. Then the left alphabet cutting off of genitals crew said, 'hold my beer".

Now you have: Too easy.

Go Palestine!

Nothing screams STATUS louder to the older waitresses at Denny's than a condo and a Camaro.

Sorry, I just have to ask: Is your name Larry and do you iron your jeans?

Sounds like that would fit right in with his pumps and hair extensions.

Tim isn't my people. You don't follow along too well.

Not me, I've been in meetings the past couple hours. Plus I'm a grown ass man, I don't report. My guesses would be: A- The "immigrant-hating white nationalists" comment. Horrible, hateful. or B- Standing rule that ass cancer people can't start threads.

Hey guys! Don't post about the queers with signs supporting terrorists. That's not what a message board is for!

Yet here you are. And who is it that's all worked up?
