- vadimberman 9y agoYeah, I read that. It's a nice theory, I am asking about the practice. Given the abundance of low-skilled workforce, I have my doubts.
- grzm 9y agoIf that's the case, then your question as phrased is a little bit disingenuous or flamebaity. Asking for measurements or evidence of how this was implemented is legitimate, and something I, too, would be interested in learning; insinuating that your parent was being euphemistic or misleading is another. Please ask questions in good faith.
- vadimberman 9y agoYou could say that, or you could say that bragging about being better without a solid proof is disingenuous or flamebaity. Not unreasonable, is it? In this particular case, I've seen scores of advanced economies where the eloi are clueless about the stinky and dirty morlocks breaking their backs to power the paradise, and I believe a tiny bit of blindingly obvious sarcasm is not an overreaction.
