And you're sounding positively insensitive, if you claim that the
numbers show that economy is as "good" as your claim for millions of
poor people. The numbers are averages and only indicate a change that
has happened. It doesn't mean that it's "good" for everyone as you
claim.

I'm not talking about "socialist distribution". I'm talking about an
honest assessment of the economy. For many, it still stinks.

Numbers are just numbers. You think the numbers substitute for
judgement. You're just making things up.

But most don't. You're not making a rational statement here.

We don't have a very good educational system in this country if you
measure it against those of other countries. And yet you choose to
blame it on a Bell Curve.
