Economist Has Convincing Theory on How Extreme Inequality Creates Extremist Violence

[Sherman A1]

11. Statistically

You may be correct in you point. However, one doubts that statistics have much meaning to the families or friends of the victims of mass shootings or other forms of violent events be they in Europe, The Middle East, Asia, Africa, The US or anywhere in the world. We may indeed be seeing less violence as you suggest, however we need to see much, much less and at least I believe and have believed that economic inequality is a driving force behind a host of societal problems, violence being one of those.
