Above the airline

Not much to say today. Long discussions about the idea that democracy is only good when society is sufficiently educated and until then its better to have a strong leader (dictator) to guide development...

Statistic of the day:

Hans Rosling says that 2 Billion people live below the poverty line with an income lower than 2 USD per day, 28% of the population consume 8.3% of energy. Then we have 3 Billion people earning between 2 and 40 USD per day, 43% consume 25% of the energy. Then one billion above the washline (they have washing machines) with incomes between 40 and 80 USD per day, 14% of the population consumes 16% of the energy consumption in the world. Finally we have those that live above the airline (travel by plane on holiday once a year) with incomes above 80USD. 14% of the population consumes 50% of the total global energy consumption.
