Then perhaps you would explain why U.S. still has such a high rate of population increment (keep in mind the total Hispanic and Latino population is only about 12.5%, while the "high-class-and-well-educated white people" you were referring to takes up 77.1%)? And would you also explain to me why...

I completely agree, however, you cannot limit the right for someone to have at least one offspring. China has the one-child policy, they also limited the age for pregnancy (or was it marriage), it is not a perfect strategy, but it beats nothing. However, China still have a 0.4% yearly population...

You missed the whole point of lotteries.

Give us an example. In the field of physics? I doubt it.

I was referring to their value to society. The bum probably have a negative value in his contribution to mankind. And do read my next paragraph.

Since y does not equal f(x), y can not be expressed in terms of x. We would have to express x in terms of y. Of course, it would be much better if the equation was x=y^x, then it can be expressed as y=x^(1/x).

No, not everyone is equal, you can't compare Stephen Hawking to some bum on the street, there is a definite value gap. But in a humane point of view, "bums" should be treated equally, and be kept in a society. However, it is true to some degree that these people are like parasites to society...

As far as proof is concerned, it can't even be proven right. All they have is the math formulas, that's why some physicians consider it a metaphysics theory rather than physics theory.

Ah, but it is.

I was looking for something more like this: x'=y^(1/y)*(1/y^2-ln(y)/y^2). I solved it though, guess just got stuck for a minute.

Not quite the answer I was looking for, but thanks any how. I already know how the problem is solved.

How do you find the derivative of y=x^y ?

The problem is, in America, you can pretty much sue anybody for any lame reason, and you'd probably win!

Now, that is absurd.

It was indeed remodeled a few hundred years ago. But it is definitely not built 3000 years ago, I believe that is almost 800 years before the Qin dynasty (the first Chinese dynasty). Meaning there weren't even any Emperors at the time. Check yourself, don't get too assertive.
