• Nice to see that Divide And Conquer propaganda tactics are still going strong. Aleksandr Dugin would be so proud.

    “Ok, fellow kids! Let’s all blame our own parents and grandparents, not that tiny population of oligarchs!”

    • All the study and article says that there is a correlation between an older population and inequality, that there is a relationship but not what the relationship is.

      You could easily use this to make the argument that the Oligarchs are destroying everyone else’s ability to have a family

      • No, correlation does not mean there is a relationship. That’s the whole point behind “correlation does not equal causation.”

        Read some of the ludicrous correlations people trot out to illustrate it. Two things occurring at the same time do not have to be related.

        And no, I couldn’t use that meaningless population statistic to make the argument that oligarchs (lower case “o”) are destroying everyone else’s ability to have a family. Arguments require data, not correlations.
