Doesn't change the fact that OUR poor would STILL be in Mexico's 1%.

You keep repeating this as if it's a fact.

The top 1% in Mexico is less wealthy than the top 1% in the US... but, they're VERY well off.




The poor in the US are not in the same stratosphere as the top 1% in Mexico.

If you can't grasp what I'm saying, I'm not going to waste bandwidth trying to explain it to you.

Suffice it to say, if you took OUR poor, the would be the next class JUST below the 1% at the very least.

Read this article, then you'll understand....or not.

I agree that our poor would be middle class or maybe even upper middle class in Mexico.

But, you keep saying (before you just backpedaled) that they'd be in the top 1% in Mexico... and that's just borderline retarded.

We can insert this gem into just about every thread in the Poli wing.

No more crying about our "poor."

Can we still cry about the economy and how low wages and safety net spending drag it down?
