for those 1000s of yrs of fighting we didnt hav the means to kill everything - we hav suddenly gone from being able to destroy a city [a dot on the globe] to being able to block out the sun permanently everywhere & freeze everything 3 times colder than an iceage with a 60th of the bombs we already hav

we hav to turn around 5000 yrs of 'happiness' or 'contentment' with, or inability to control & prevent, war - & less than 50 yrs to do it in - it is bigbig thinking-cap time - & ppl are still in massive denial of the problem

we dont yet know we hav injustice
[despite fortnight's pay from $1 to $1 billion, despite 225 ppl havng asmuchas 2.5 billion ppl]
we dont yet know that injustice causes the violence
[despite knowing what wd happen if a govt took 90% income off 90% ppl]
we dont yet know that violence is escalative
[despite 5000 yrs of violence escalation]
we dont yet know that our bombs hav planet-death capability
[despite the fact being scientifically uncontroversial]

are they thinking that a person is taking from nature, who freely gives, and not understanding that a person is taking from the pool of wealth created by ppl's work?
they think that a person getting rich doesnt steal from others, bc they are thinking of a person's work as like going out in nature and grabbing some valuable from mother nature? so they think: if a person gets rich, what is that to do with others?
whereas, the pool one fishes in for wealth is made up of the products of ppl's labour, & of natural things owned by ppl by birthright?
bill gates puts in the pool the products of one hr of his work, and takes out $500,000 av - the products of 50,000 hrs of others' labour - legally steals the products of 49,999 hrs work - money for no work, making work for no money for others - it takes only 8000 ppl getting up to a million times the avg hrly pay to steal 100% of the money/ earnings/ products in the world - we hav 1% stealing 89% - US$70 tln/yr - and we cant grasp it

things, where n = the current human population? - and that this is stolen off u at birth by the pre-ownership of all the naturally occurring valuable things by the custom of private property?

an nth of all the land, animals, minerals, oil, diamonds, tourist spots, trees, soil, plants, etc?

where there is no private property, every creature born, automatically has a birthright share in nature's valuables - a lion cub can walk about freely, sharing the land - for us, we can walk about freely on the footpaths and the parks - most of the world is closed, forbidden to us - we not only hav stolen our share of the whole land undivided [our freedom to go anywhere], we dont even get our fairshare of the land [& all the other natural valuables] divided -
as far as i know, no one in the history of the world has ever noticed this automatic theft
who owns the land owns everything - the ppl, the labour, the valuables, everything -

I need to know or get an idea about the economic knowledge of those individuals whose early childhood development had surroundings of wealth, and if their early surrounding would give them more insight on how to earning a living. In other words, would someone growing up in a low median to median to upper middleclass to highclass surrounding would understand, or know how to earn a living better than someone living in a surrounding without financial stability, solvency, or independence? I would like those who are in the field of Economics, or who have insight through experience to answer this question, but others are welcome to give their take on this topic.

vanity & guilt? [some of the guilt unfair to themselves]

do the plunderers, recognising on some repressed level that they are overpaid & plunderers, project their vices on to the plundered as a way of dealing with guilt, & of flattering their vanity?

do they project virtues onto the biggest plunderers for similar reasons?

the persistence of accusations of the robbed poor breeding like rabbits, irresponsible, making poor choices, incompetence, produce nothing, lazy, lacking goals, afraid of taking risks, settling for less, using poverty as an excuse, not using their talents, lacking marketing acumen, fewer talents & ideas, unpersevering - are all these projection? do ppl feel bad about themselves, think they are inferior bc others 'made' [raked] more money? do they think that others 'made' more money bc they were more virtuous, disiplined?

'the money was not mine to begin with, im not born with a right to wealth, but with a right to pursue wealth'?
you can be underpaid for yr work, you can be overcharged for your purchases by created scarcity, by yr ignorance of costs of product, you can contribute by work to the increase in value of the city & nation and yet not collect full pay for yr labour for this, bc you dont have land or shares, or bc u dont hav equal land/shares, govt in the hands of corrupt can create inflation by increase of money supply, which is effectively a tax, you can then be forced by yr greater poverty to borrow back the inflation/tax money thru the bank, ending up giving the bank many times the loan in repayments, stockplayers can extract millions/billions out of ppl's pockets by having better stock information - there are many legal thefts
u choose to buy, but u dont choose to be overcharged relative to full costs [=labour inputs] of product

someone says: burundis choose to kill each other, breed like rabbits, produce nothing, live on aid, imcompetent

does this leave out the significant fact that europeans are paid $10+/hr and burundians 1c/hr?
that 50% of the pop. are under 14 and therefore they breed like rabbits leaves out the fact that the life expectancy at birth is around 45 yrs, & 50% is only 2 kids/couple?
produce nothing: is the truth that they are paid very little [by europeans] for their production of coffee, etc
live on aid: is it true that net aid is to FIRST world, ie repayments exceed loans?
kill one another: is the truth that european plunder has made them so super-desperately poor that stealing is survivalist? ['the rich rob the poor and the poor rob each other' bc the poor are too weak to rob the rich]
incompetent: how competent wd anyone be on 1c/hr?
is it unlikely that ppl in one place are much inferior to ppl in another place?

I need some serious help here, i'm really confused...

I need the equilibrium interest rate I(r)

here is the given information:

Y = C + I + G
Y = 5,000
G = 1,000
T = 1,000
C= 250 + .75(Y - T)
I = 1,000 - 50r

According to my textbook,
Y - C(Y - T) - G = I(r)

so:
5000 - 250 + .75(5000 - 1000) - 1000 = I(r)
=5000 - 250 + 3000 - 1000
=4750 + 2000
=6750

doesn't make sense...

and then i'm not even sure if i have to do this or not but i tried it

set that equal to the given I which is 1000 - 50r

6750 = 1000 - 50r

subtract 1000 =

6750 = -50r

divide by -50

= -135... whats going on here please give me some help...

With Iraq, his administration fabricated and/or twisted false reports of WMD's and ties to Al Queda, and the fact that Saddam is unkind to his people into a vaild reason for us to 'liberate' Iraq...

With North Korea, it is a know (and flaunted) fact that they have nuclear capabilities and are more than willing to use them, and Kim Jong is a childish madman who is inkind to his people...

Why then is he insisting that we solve this with 'diplomacy'?

Hint: One-word answer, starts with 'O', ends with 'L'...Iraq has plenty, North Korea has none...
