depends on population type

2018-10-08 14:50:00 UTC  

The bigger the population the bigger the inequality?

2018-10-08 14:50:05 UTC  

I'm not sure that's obvious.

2018-10-08 14:50:11 UTC  

Square root of population produces 50% of output = The bigger the population, the bigger the inequality.

2018-10-08 14:50:26 UTC  

Various countries in Europe have vastly different size and very similar rates of poverty.

2018-10-08 14:50:30 UTC  

are we at 8 billion ?

2018-10-08 14:50:35 UTC  

or still at 7

2018-10-08 14:50:36 UTC  

Sweden has 10 million people, Germany 85.

2018-10-08 14:50:48 UTC  

Where do you see the starkest contrast?

2018-10-08 14:51:37 UTC  

wouldn't flooding the Swedish Job Market with Millions of Germany's Skilled Techies result in Low Salaries?

2018-10-08 14:51:40 UTC  

I am confused why you assume that two countries of different size cannot have the same wealth distribution.

2018-10-08 14:51:45 UTC  

in the said field

2018-10-08 14:51:46 UTC  

Pareto distribution holds true across all areas of production.

2018-10-08 14:52:25 UTC  

Well, yes various distributions hold true over larger populations, under the same general ocnditions.

2018-10-08 14:52:25 UTC  

it will atleast stamp out any prospects of salary growth

2018-10-08 14:52:46 UTC  

People do not become taller, by distribution, just because you choose more of them.

2018-10-08 14:53:00 UTC  

I am rather confused by the statements above.

2018-10-08 14:53:15 UTC  

Sure, you will end up with more tall people.

2018-10-08 14:53:16 UTC  

in 30 years us will be 600 million probably

2018-10-08 14:53:20 UTC  

I am not sure what to make of it, though.

2018-10-08 14:53:21 UTC  

The proportions will change with population

2018-10-08 14:53:23 UTC  

if you add more tall people to a group, wouldn't the mean eventually rise🤔

2018-10-08 14:53:36 UTC  

Those are absolute numbers, but relative to a larger population.

2018-10-08 14:53:44 UTC  

idk what we're talking about any more

2018-10-08 14:53:49 UTC  

Do you mean mean or average?

2018-10-08 14:54:01 UTC  

i thought they're the same thing

2018-10-08 14:54:03 UTC  

🤔

2018-10-08 14:54:04 UTC  

No.

2018-10-08 14:54:21 UTC  

Yes.

2018-10-08 14:54:35 UTC  

that's 1 and 1

2018-10-08 14:54:42 UTC  

The mean of the set {0, 0, 0, 0, 5, 15} is 5, but the average is 10.

2018-10-08 14:54:50 UTC  

the majority of the factors of inequality can be traced back to foul play by global conglomerates

2018-10-08 14:54:53 UTC  

well, it's not a set

2018-10-08 14:54:59 UTC  

it's a sequence

2018-10-08 14:55:02 UTC  

by keeping them in check inequality could be managed

2018-10-08 14:55:20 UTC  

theres no 300 year plan

2018-10-08 14:55:30 UTC  

Alright. I have to get started on my day.

2018-10-08 14:55:30 UTC  

in these companies

2018-10-08 14:55:38 UTC  

I'll let you look up the statistics stuff.

2018-10-08 14:55:46 UTC  

they are pushing the envelop for the next quarter

2018-10-08 14:55:48 UTC  

We should just go back to Feudalism, how about that?
