The top 20% control 80 % of the resources.. the top 1% control 40%„ howver this refers to ants colonies„ termite farms„ beehives.. any time there are social animals in a mix. There is always a bottom, zipfs law, is another example. stiglitz is not writing on economics , he is writing on politics. He ignores computers, he ignores productivity. Your lenient lion survives , in a world of kindness, generousity, altruism and fair play.. I enjoy your insights and appreciate your views on what a world could be, however I currently find myself living in a world that is. 2011/7/7 shendong(,ttS) J, Your comments that inevitably the most ruthless is the richest, and that lenient lion will be eaten alive, have been swirling in my mind. They are very vivid. It is because you know so many of them so well that one cannot refute you. These comments struck the foundation of my idealism. I would like to share the attached articles with you. All four are great writings, but the relevant ones to our discussion are by Stiglitz and by Brkic. What Stiglitz talks about is not new. Much of the statistics are common knowledge to you and me. But the point is what he writes at the end. Ultimately, what is good for the general mass is also good the fortunate 1%. Do we realize that? Brkic's article is a my for human decency. We too often knowingly fall into the mental trap that as long as we do not actively participate in a crime we are not guilty. We become willing passive bystander of a crime. I think both articles have a lot of relevance to what we discussed this afternoon. I hope you may have time to read over these two articles during your flight to Aspen, as I am doing now. See you soon.
