The source of inflation matters... if more money is going to the lower classes causes it it's quite different than the top tiers propelling it.

Yeah except that investigating this area leads one to believe the game is rigged, in today's atmosphere for example the vast majority of new money gets lent to the 1% and that leads to discussion of central banking.

Please explain in detail why total population is relevant when designing socio-economic systems. Further, please explain to me roughly where the dividing lines should be for the various aspects of socio-economic systems. For example, "national health care systems only work up to 100m people, while Scandinavian style social programs can only be effective in countries up to 25m people." And so on.

I want me some plagiarisms in there too.

I would settle for him simply and logically writing in his own words how he comes to the conclusion that a country of 25 million can run an efficient government, yet a country of 300 million can't simply because of population. Using complete sentences and proper punctuation. It would be good practice for all of the future writing assignments that he has in store in his continuing college education, lol.

I would also like to ask him if he supports a breakup of the US since it can't inherently be as successful as smaller, more homogenized nations. If this is true then he should support secession for his state, or perhaps the Deep South in general, because less population = better government.

Would be hilarious to see what would happen to places like Alabama and Mississippi if they seceded.

I imagine New Englanders would sympathize with Arizonans and New Mexicans more.

Also, thanks for making the Nordic Model case for me, all I had to do was mention it and you guys did all the work

Just sucks that the nords sacrificed pure GDP growth for pointless shit like healthcare, education, happiness, and breathable air. Imagine how big their bar could've been on a chart! What a waste...

Wait a minute...

I think... yea... I just had a thought.

What if, stay with me here, now what if there wasmoreto life than money? I mean, sure you need enough to eat, and feel safe from harm or catastrophe... but much beyond that... what if it doesn't really matter?

Sounds crazy I know, if only there were dozens of peer reviewed studies that backed it up, quick, someone call the London School of Economics!

I think you meant to say the London School of Liberal Arts, pfffft. The only school that counts is the School of Hard Knocks and Bootstraps, and you damn sure can't find it in no fucking hippy liberal socialist country like London.

I'm all for a breakup these days especially if it separates the left coast and New York/NE from the more productive parts.

And yes, a country with 5 million people is vastly different from one with 315 million. Except in illogical up is down liberal world. And you wonder why conservatives think liberals are stupid.

Also employer mandate delayed another year to avoid the elections.

You answered a fairly specific question with a vague response that did nothing to actually address the question at hand. No shit 5 million is different from 300 million. It's no wonder liberals think all conservatives are stupid.

No sale. Burden of proof is on you for suggesting that country of 316 million can be run as efficiently as 5 million.

So really, how exactly do you plan to get the trains to run on time?

Historically, you socialists resort to fascism.

The South, Midwest and Rockies could survive and thrive without left coast and NPenn,New York,NJ,New England. The reverse is not true, even if we throw in Illinois and Florida.

I'm going to just do what you do and make a bombastic post with nothing to support it. Watch this.

"New Mexico would instantly become the capital of the planet in the event we seceded."

Man, that IS easy.

Cya guys in a few days when my post has been forgotten!
