    Some are more equal than others
    kmcolo
    by kmcolo  8-25-2009   
     An interesting radio program(me) on the likely impact of inequality in developed countries. These researchers provide background information and discussion on their evidence that inequality is more destructive to society in those economies already well developed. This means that the social advantage of economic inequality, from the utopian 'motivator of innovation and growth' to the cynical 'there but by my listening to my boss go I' is outweighed by the social disadvantage of crime, ill health and the like. Though I would not consider this the last word on the subject, it is a worthy listen to, despite the odd and off putting affect that such discussion seems to instill in our brothers and sisters on that little island over there called Britain.

    Danger: Demographic Change Approaching
    kmcolo
    by kmcolo  6-20-2008   
      But its focus on the developed world sometimes causes it to downplay the serious economic, socio-political, environmental, and security challenges posed by high population growth in developing countries—and by a global population that is expected to top 9 billion by 2050.

     At least from my outside perspective, this looks like the real deal. Looks like another case of market liberalization leading to political liberalization. We'll see, maybe even in my lifetime.
