Income Inequality - by the REAL numbers

Discussion in 'Economics' started by ktm, Aug 29, 2022.

  1. These are the numbers from the article:
    ----------bottom 2nd 20% middle 20%
    earnings 6,941 31,811 66,453
    income 48,806 50,492 61,350
    I can believe the numbers. How can the bottom 20% and the 2nd bottom 20% get so much money from the government?

    I checked on it, Heifer International gives people pigs, chickens goats;
    g pigs also. Most any US state has a rabbit +squirrel season.
    IF times ever get super tough\ i may stop feeding songbirds; never gotten that tough yet.
    I remember in Argentina, the locals considered the doves like rats, because there were 16 million doves +they ate grain. However rural people may enjoy them.......
    But in US dove is considered a top food like quail; + i brought my doves back on a plane Then you had to leave a feathered wing on for customs ID:caution::caution:

    (laughs) Yeah, that would be a definition of ,,super tough times" when a man can't spare some white bread for birbs. Nuclear winter or smthn.

    But US also got this one ready :

    I've also planted grains+ blueberry bushes for birds;
    + you can usually tell which is the cheapest grain , like when they load up the wild birdseed with milo or corn:caution::caution::D:D
    I prefer seeded watermelon when i can find a big one;
    the local red birds[cardinals] love the seeds................. I like blueberries myself.
