What type of economic system are most of those countries? Are they neoliberal market economies or are they, in majority, mixed or even command economies?

Yes and then there was 40 years after that of neoliberal administrations that foresaw a total of 12% growth in real wages. Meanwhile, worker productivity has increased by enormous amounts. This is your justification for neoliberalism?

You clearly think that you are a very intelligent person; what policies and things would you say occurred during the 80s that might have caused wages to fall in the US?

Notice how I said 1974 and was not talking about the graph that starts in the 80s

Yes and if you adjust for inflation then the $10,378 median income in 1974 had the same wage as someone making $71,091. The triumph of neoliberalism: a 12.5% increase in standard of living over a 50 year period.

The poverty rate in 1973 was 11.1%. In 2023, the poverty rate was 11.1%. It has absolutely been relatively flat with increases and decreases around each recession.

The poverty rate in the west has been relatively flat since the 1970s

please, explain what you meant by those tweets then! im genuinely curious. obviously if someone is not interested in dismantling the state of israel, they are a zionist. are you saying you have a different definition of zionism?

wow crazy that the jewish person wrote some tweets about being jewish, that's really disgusting that she did that
why do you think that every jewish person needs to first publicly denounce israel, even before saying negative things about israel, so you can be absolutely sure theyre not zionist
comment in response to
post
i mean, you absolutely did implicitly call her a zionist when you said that june was saying we should ignore israel or that we should kill the israel in our hearts but not the actual one lol

hey so if ur response to a jewish woman talking negatively about the very concept of israel as a jewish state is to implicitly call her a zionist u should probably take a step back and reconsider whether u are just kneejerk reacting to a jewish woman being jewish

so, just to be clear, the person you are talking about is a poc trans woman and the article in question said that the jumaane williams would be a good mayor. it was about as close to an endorsement as you can get without being a direct endorsement.

if you have a bunch of people telling you that your joke is antisemitic, do you think it is more likely that your joke is antisemitic or that everybody else is just being thin skinned
