You are. Here's a fistful. Read 'em and weep.

> Turns out paying people a higher wage and giving them more benefits makes them work motivated.
McDonald's (MCD, -3.21%) on Friday reported its third straight increase in quarterly comparable sales, helped by moves such as bringing back All-Day breakfast and offering new menu options.
But another move by McDonald's is behind this reversal of fortune for the hamburger chain, which had posted two years of declines through last fall: higher wages and tuition help for employees.

> Ton describes the elements of the good jobs strategy in a variety of successful companies around the world, including Southwest Airlines, UPS, Toyota, Zappos, and In-N-Out Burger. She focuses on four model retailers—Costco, Mercadona, Trader Joe’s, and QuikTrip—to demonstrate the good jobs strategy at work and reveals four choices that have transformed these companies’ high investment in workers into lower costs, higher profits, and greater customer satisfaction.

  1. If you think Congressman care about their $100,000 salary from the government, your understanding of how these people manipulate the system for personal gain is flawed.

  2. If poor guy makes 1, and rich guy makes 100. Average is just over 50. If poor guy makes 10 times as much, and rich guy makes 100 - average is just 55. If poor guy makes 1, and rich guy doubles income to 200 - average is over 100. Your theory is flawed.

  3. Who would calculate the average income? Oh, the same people who would benefit from the number being manipulated. A system like this would only provide a false sense of trust to the general public since all governments know How to Lie with Statistics

There's almost exactly that book. Each chapter in Click is written by a different author all telling the same story. I'm not positive they all have mental disorders, but they're creative authors so who really knows.
"Click"

Here is some recommended reading. It's absurd to attempt to make a 1-1 comparison when whites are between 62% and 77% (depending on if you count Hispanics as white) of the total population of the US. It makes much more sense to make a per capita compairsion so total mass shootings per 100000.

The Terence McKenna book, the H. G. Wells book, or the Bert Gordon movie? None of which have anything to do with cannibalism...

Have you read The Boat of a Million Years? That book explores a similar concept.

Not quite the same thing, but there's Trial of the Clone by Zach Weiner.

What? Do you know what "collective noun" means? I think you're the one who should read a book. Here is a picture book to get you started.
