All the numbers I've seen support my assertions. Even though the rich have been getting richer over the past two decades, crime is down and out-of-wedlock births are down. Even abortions are down.


Actually crime has been on the upswing the past two years. But what the hell does the rich getting richer have to do with this stuff? Are you in a strawman mood again?

Over the short term. The Gini has been increasing since the late 1960s. Since the early 1990s, those things have improved. But they had decades of following the trend.
