<<The pace of change has been incredibly rapid and incredibly tough on the less educated," says Mr. Zandi, who calls this period the most difficult for American households since the 1930s. "If you don't have the education and you don't have the right skills, then you are getting creamed." Makes sense Wharfy. As we become a global village with 7 billion people it becomes harder and harder to distribute the wealth evenly as there is not enough to go around. So we are sort of devolving into the law of the jungle. Our uneducated are competing with the world population. Apple makes its computers for pennies in China and leaves a lot of the money there. Apple. The left's computer company. There is enough food to feed the educated kids and they know how to get it, so like wolves they get to feed at the carcass of the fallen elk, but the uneducated kids, like foxes must scurry on the edges for leftovers and compete with every other species out there. So I expect worldwide class warfare. Small populated areas like Iceland, Alaska and Norway will do much better than large highly populated areas like Asia. The competition for food will continue to be desperate. The world is mostly uneducated and they are needed less and less, just as there are more and more of them.
