It's fairly simple, really. You said that wealth ratios have remained the same "for all of human history". Someone came back and pointed out that it hasn't always remained that way and there have certainly been blips. You then responded by saying "not in my country" for the past "1000 years".
Well, according to your first assertion we're not supposed to cover only your country for the past 1,000 years. We're supposed to cover all of human history - every nation, as far back as at least 10,000BCE.

Ratios have stayed the same. > You then responded by saying "not in my country" for the past "1000 years". Yeah - my country hasn't really had those blips. And the blips in other countries didn't change the ratios anyway, just transferred who owned them, so it was a separate point. > Well, according to your first assertion we're not supposed to cover only your country for the past 1,000 years. No it was a separate comment and point!
