But.... so what?
- romanoderoma 6y ago> But.... so what? That they are an undeveloped society Are you comparing US to undeveloped countries? Do you understand that the richest country in the World has a worse homicide rate than Nigeria? If I have to chose, i prefer living where they don't shoot me rather than where the city produces a very high GDP... Beijing has a GDP 517.876 billion dollars. So, according to the original post, it must be like living in Houston.
- jp555 6y agoYou think a society that's been stable for tens of thousands of years is undeveloped? Interesting. Are you sure Nigeria is as reliable as the US for those stats? You should check out the concept of Ergodicty. In your examples the ensemble average does not = the time-series average. You're saying something like "4 out of 5 Russian Roulette players had a great time playing, so I should as well".
