The immigration chart is

Interesting, but was the slave trade so small by that point in 1850-60 and from the preceding decades that Africans don't register at all during that time period?

I would guess that the slave trade doesn't count as immigration in this because it's no voluntary...? It certainly how you want to define the terms.

Billionaires also have the same vaccines as everybody else, and the same medicines. But alas, not everybody has the same level of medical care. The least productive part - the doctors and the nurses - does not have same productivity gain as the material side of things.

Productivity gain leads to falling prices, which in turn allows poor bums afford the same nice things as billionaires.

A lot of things trickle down from the top of the market... Airbags and ABS brakes and collision detection and all those safety features used to only be on the most premium vehicles, and now every entry car has like 7 airbags.

Congratulations Lib on the 2 years. Hell of an accomplishment. I'd be very sad if this project ever comes to an end. Please keep it up.
