Does this mean they exclude wage figures from a fifth of the working population?In the United States, wages are benchmarked using average hourly earnings. Data relate to production employees in mining and logging and manufacturing, construction employees in construction, and nonsupervisory employees in the service-providing industries. These groups account for approximately four-fifths of the total employment on private nonfarm payrolls.
Accurate, and so many tipping points later here we are.Their democracy has decided that they will accept the current consequences of their high rate of gun ownership. Unless their is a major tipping point incident its unlikely to change.
Edit: this quote is from 2014.Michael Moore said:With due respect to those who are asking me to comment on last night's tragic mass shooting at UCSB in Isla Vista, CA -- I no longer have anything to say about what is now part of normal American life. Everything I have to say about this, I said it 12 years ago: We are a people easily manipulated by fear which causes us to arm ourselves with a quarter BILLION guns in our homes that are often easily accessible to young people, burglars, the mentally ill and anyone who momentarily snaps. We are a nation founded in violence, grew our borders through violence, and allow men in power to use violence around the world to further our so-called American (corporate) "interests." The gun, not the eagle, is our true national symbol. While other countries have more violent pasts (Germany, Japan), more guns per capita in their homes (Canada [mostly hunting guns]), and the kids in most other countries watch the same violent movies and play the same violent video games that our kids play, no one even comes close to killing as many of its own citizens on a daily basis as we do -- and yet we don't seem to want to ask ourselves this simple question: "Why us? What is it about US?" Nearly all of our mass shootings are by angry or disturbed white males. None of them are committed by the majority gender, women. Hmmm, why is that? Even when 90% of the American public calls for stronger gun laws, Congress refuses -- and then we the people refuse to remove them from office. So the onus is on us, all of us. We won't pass the necessary laws, but more importantly we won't consider why this happens here all the time. When the NRA says, "Guns don't kill people -- people kill people," they've got it half-right. Except I would amend it to this: "Guns don't kill people -- Americans kill people." Enjoy the rest of your day, and rest assured this will all happen again very soon.
It was probably the thing I disliked about the States the most, I felt that I needed to own a gun for protection. I am as centre left non violent as they come but over there is terrifying and I honestly hated the fact that I felt the need to have a gun for protection.I always thought it would take someone to shoot up a school of pre-schoolers (aka Dunblaine) for the Americans to act.
Then Sandy Hook happened. Perpetrated by an individual who used a legally purchased AR-15 bought by his mother for home protection(!) to do just that. And nothing eventuated. Ten years later it's not only continuing but increasing.
You do not need an AR-15 (or any other high velocity automatic) for anything except killing the maximum number of people in the shortest timeframe possible. That's its specific design. They should never be in civilian hands.
If Congress reintroduced and passed the Federal Assault Weapons Ban (brought in by Clinton, removed by Dubya) that would be a big step forward imo.
This is the only way America know how to fix itself. Litigation.One thing may be worthy of note is apparently the manufacturer of the gun used (Daniel Defence) might be facing a shitstorm of lawsuits over this.
If it's one thing Americans love more than guns, it's litigation. It may result in an element of self-regulation by arms manufacturers keen to avoid the same if this becomes a precedent. Probably do more than Congress while it's still full of ammosexual Republicans anyway.
