The following came from my investmenets professor after our quick current events discussion led to a topic concerning GDP's, etc.
In your face, world.
If we could shrink the earth's population to a village of precisely 100 people, will all existing human rations remaining the same, ti would look like this:
57 Asians, 21 Europeans, 14 North/South Americans, 8 Africans
51 Female, 49 Male
70 Nonwhite, 30 White
70 Non-Christian, 30 Christian
80 would live in substandard housing
70 would be unable to read
50 would suffer from malnutrition
1 would be near death, 1 near birth
1 would have a college education
No one would have a computer
6 would control over half of the entire world's wealth those 6 would be U.S. citizens.

Ok so let me get this straight, the whites would still get blamed for everything though right? Good, I would hate to lose that. And would affirmative action still be in place?
The successful are always at fault for advancing themselves over others.
It's scary that the 6 Americans, who control over 1/2 the wealth would account for just 1 college education - at most.
We get diluted by the rest of the worlkd regarding the averages. In reality they al would though Gates, Dell and Jobs would be on that list and none of them have a dgree prior to their wealth.
