With how braindead you are its no surprise you work in economics. And by "a masters in economics" i assume H&R block piloting turbotax? I think they sometimes hire masters in econ of your caliber there. Its a hard job clicking on brigjtly colored arrows and filling in boxes. Was there no online calculator to lead you to the right conclusion? If there was it would tell you you're flat our wrong hahahaha!

200m figure you came up with is a halfbaked estimate extrapolated from battles in the 1400's, applied to the past 5000 years, rather than the past 300000. psst, that's a 295000 year difference.

If you look at the world population past 3000 BCE it wasnt very much...

I bet most "wars" back then were a warlord and has 20 best buds going for campaign while some of their wives die in labour.

How is a master in economics unable to do math? You havent given me a detailed breakdown of your position at all besides shouting out percentages like they mean something.

BTW im more than happy to keep coming back to dunk on you any time you respond. I love being right hahaha!

    Those are a lot of big words from someone that thinks 105 boys per 100 girls is a 55/45 split.

    I'll stop "shouting percentages" at you. You can't comprehend them to begin with. probably get a heart attack trying to understand what statistical probability is. Good thing we never wasted time on that.

    Good luck. I'm sure you'll get far in life

    Yeah i bet you regret doing econ. Turned out well for you didn't it? Arent economists supposed to be masters of exactly this kind of problem? Did you get straight Cs and Ds and suck the dean off to get your degree? You've done a horrible job explaining your position. You never were able to extrapolate your points into exactly how more military men were supposed to have died than women through childbirth. You were—and still are—off by at least one order of magnitude on your best case argument.

    Your most convincing argument could be boiled down to "nuh uh!" Without anything substantial to back it up unlike me. The numerical janitor can't do math or convincingly make an argument with his prodigious econ skills!

    Go back to doing peoples taxes...

    Why would I regret getting a degree? I'm paid well with 6 weeks of paid vacation. Not that it's relevant so why you want to try and bring that up is beyond me.

    And what is this about doing other peoples taxes? No one does that here. The government tells you what you owe, how much your employer paid on your behalf. And if you don't have any deductions and it looks good, you simply press "submit". Takes like 5 minutes.

    Economists generally do not excavate corpses in the fossil layers to count the number of dead bodies. So i would not say we're experts at that.

    We mostly deal with finances or various categories. Like investment funds or long term budgets for governments and banks. that kinda of stuff. So, now you know i guess.

    Your inability to comprehend the basics is not something I can help you with.
