P.-V. demande a Paolo...non a Brad...

'Consider a simple example (which I used in a fall ec 10 lecture). There are two people. A rich guy earns $200,000. A poor guy earns $20,000. At first, the rich guy pays $50,000 in taxes, and the poor guy pays $1,000. Then a new President takes office and cuts the rich guy's taxes to $48,000 and the poor guy's taxes to $800.

Who is getting the better deal?'

Demande a Brad...

Oh la la!!! CA C'EST UN DEBAT!


Mais P.-V. pense que dans les societes d'aujourd'hui, afin de les rendre plus productives, il n'existe avant tout qu'un seul moyen:

e·qui·lib·ri·um  (kw-lbr-m, kw-)

n. pl. e·qui·lib·ri·ums or e·qui·lib·ri·a (-r-)
1. A condition in which all acting influences are canceled by others, resulting in a stable, balanced, or unchanging system.
2. Mental or emotional balance; poise.
3. Physics The state of a body or physical system at rest or in unaccelerated motion in which the resultant of all forces acting on it is zero and the sum of all torques about any axis is zero.
4. Chemistry The state of a chemical reaction in which its forward and reverse reactions occur at equal rates so that the concentration of the reactants and products does not change with time.

ou bien:

Balance, for example when demand equals supply.
