    Yes. That is what I said.

    You don't know any homeless.

    WRONG. Wages are set by market forces. Price controls don't work.

    If you are pushed out, it's your fault.

    More Millennials have college degrees at the same age as Boomers did.
    Although boomers had higher wages at the same age.

    Productivity is way up.

    Why?
    Because a bunch of Boomer Hippy druggies turned Reaganites tranpled the USA.

    There's good & bad in all groups.

    I've known some wonderful Scottish origin people.

    But, that doesn't mean the Southern White mentality many people despise isn't Scottish.

    The South has much Scottish blood.
    Through Ulster, and also Scotland.

    Its a bit difficult to tell. Because many of these Scottish bloodlines put down American, Scots- Irish or Irish as their heritage.

    Also these ideals started with Scots like Hume & Adam Smith.

    While, I'm sure some Scots are decent.

    I tend to see them often unfavorably.
    Often crass, thrifty, drunken & violent compared to other ethnics.

    BTW. Much of the derelict & homeless Whites I've spoken to either admitted to Scottish blood or were of Scottish appearance.

    None of them cause poverty. Poverty is caused by government. It is government that names someone 'in poverty'.

    GDP is not the economy. Velocity of trade is.

    Random wanderings. Perhaps you should marshal your thoughts a bit better when you post.

    No, nature causes poverty.

    Of course minimum wage is a poverty wage.

    Minimum wage laws are price controls. Price controls never work.

    False authority fallacy. Why are you fixated on college degrees? Strawman fallacy.
