Which is very wimpy, but I think a good reflection of where we're at.

Is there any chance you could send me a copy of his spreadsheets, or at least confirm the source he used to arrive at the figures?<br /><br />I'm especially interested in the ones from Ireland, because when I look at the OECD figures, Irish pre-tax/transfer gini coefficients aren't available, so I'm not sure how the results were calculated.<br /><br />Thanks for the article.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14401256258036969736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8434369190746987531.post-58540245083542132012-09-26T21:53:39.661+10:002012-09-26T21:53:39.661+10:00Greg

Australia is doing well while the US is doing badly.<br /><br />In any event, its not that the $A is 'overvalued', its that the $US is now of lesser value than it has ever been in the past. <br /><br />Valid view?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
