Well said but i think your last graph is the same as your 2nd last graph. America and the western world being richer now than 40 years ago is a ridiculous idea. yes, there is less poverty. Yes, there are more ultra-rich billionaires. But the vast majority of the society- thats the middle...

Sure, but this isnt relevant to what it was like in the late 1800s for Europe, which was already industrialised ( or at least large sections of it were) - where most women were not working and a very small fraction of them were in the formal sectors. I am pointing out what the women's workplace...

Well i see it as no different than what women's employment in India or developing world countries are now or 20 years ago- with the vast majority working in the informal sector, such as farming/maids etc. The change came exclusively due to WW1, where not enough men were left to run the formal...

women's participation in the workforce mostly means formal sector, not informal sector. Maids, governess, etc have always existed through time, you can then say that the vast majority of women in rural india work, as they work the farms regularly. Women worked those informal sectors for...

I am canadian, my experience with Latinos are very different than the american one- all of the ones i see are legal immigrants, who are extremely hard working people who are ALL married and have their spouses here or sending money back home to their spouses and older generation. So i see them as...

This isnt about defying logic, this is about what data shows. We are not talking economics here, we are talking about simple data and metrics that are not subject to interpretation towards its values, but present empiric values itself, such as wealth generation, rate of discovery ( from patent...

I didn't say women weren't employed. i said their employment was minimal. Which is borne out by the statistics. Women's employment is actually interesting, because data actually shows that women's employment DROPPED during the industrial revolution from prior times, mostly because industrial...

Your graph LITERALLY confirmed what i have said - that the american middle class has been hollowed out significantly. Not only are the American middle class poorer in relative terms, they are MASSIVELY poorer, given the inflation of housing costs from the 70s to now, where the average middle...

1. The conclusion that is unavoidable from data is that women's participation in the workforce was irrelevant to economic & technological growth 2. Your claim that it would've lead to faster growth & wealth generation is unsupportable, since we DO have western data for nearly 100 years of...

The difference between America now and America in the 40s-70s, is that the American middle class was much, much bigger in the prior period, while being much, much richer comparatively. What you effectively have in USA now, is a much stronger & richer plutocrat class ( enabled by Raeganism...

But that is IRRELEVANT. As i said, if you take east Asia & Europe as benchmarks, with x-axis being time and y-axis being societal wealth & technological development, we get an approximate linear/exponential curve, with women's education and entering the workforce coming at mid/late point of the...

America in the 50s-70s was a goldilocks zone that is simply unsustainable as an economic model : gold backed currency, meaning very little currency inflation, coupled with being the ONLY manufacturing power in the world, with the whole WORLD being their export market or investment market. I am...

Both the statements are true : 1. West didn't see destruction of knowledge as India and China did in its history 2. West transitioned from a backwards poor place 500 years ago to undergoing the greatest technological revolution in the history of mankind ( industrial revolution) and inventing...

Indian birth rates in cities are the problem. Indian birth rates in rural areas are perfect. We don't want a growing population, we want a population that will hold steady. IMO, the falling birth rate in the Indian cities are less to do with working women, more to do with overcongestion and lack...

says good study, then quotes westoid mindset conclusions. Brilliant. The numbers are falling because India is falling prey to western liberal ideology nonsense, where society becomes so poor that women MUST work or starve. The main driver for this societal poverty is fiat money - something that...
