Eight Questions for Liberals - There IS a right and wrong answer for each one and you WILL be graded.?credit rating
1) Depends on the study you%26#039;re referring to. This question does not yield a true/false answer.
2) It%26#039;s an option to purchase an asset at a set time, assuming that you%26#039;re talking about investment. Context, man! It%26#039;s all about context!
3) I don%26#039;t know at the moment and haven%26#039;t looked into this. Of course, it doesn%26#039;t matter because you haven%26#039;t isolated the variables, and you only have statistics listed for two slices of time. If you%26#039;ve ever done real economic research (which is doubtful) you%26#039;d know that 2 disparate slices of time don%26#039;t necessarily mean anything.
4) True, largely due to inflation and the increase in real estate prices.
5) Also true. Basically, to qualify for this all you need to do is own a house, and in that context that number%26#039;s pretty poor.
6) I don%26#039;t have access to that information, but would be interested to see an actual link indicating it. I would be curious as to the causes because I%26#039;m doubtful that you%26#039;re making the proper interpretation.
7) Depends on the measure that you use. I know that some economic measures make that connection... it depends on a few factors, though. Again, this is not a true/false question that you have crafted (either through ignorance of the difference in metrics or via bias) into a true/false question.
8) I don%26#039;t have the figures on-hand, but I wouldn%26#039;t be surprised.
Incidentally, since you%26#039;re grading us (which is pretty laughable, to be honest), I%26#039;ve taken the liberty of grading your previous rants (since you%26#039;ve posted few real questions) with regard to your understanding of economics... and you failed.
Sorry to have to inform of that.
Have a nice day!

Thats a lot of people with no future .Guess we can rotate in people at these bottom jobs each year and promote 60 million people into management each year cause we do not need burger flippers and people to change the sheets .|||1.
