We don't have disposable resources.

We don't have disposable species.

And we don't have disposable people either.

Whenever possible, refuse single use and disposable plastics.

And it's the idea that we don't have disposable anything.

Low and middle income families will benefit from a notable increase in disposable income.

By the end of 2005, the disposable annual income of a single parent family with two children receiving social assistance will have increased by about 2,240, and a single parent, two child working family will see their disposable income increase by about 5,400.

Today, you can buy a girl trafficked for a few hundred dollars, which means she's actually more disposable.

In this society where everything is disposable, it is a virtue to use something until it wears out.

Free flight rockets such as disposable anti tank rockets can pose a serious hazard when they become duds.

What would help is if their nominal disposable income rose relative to their (fixed) debt service. Yet, with high levels of unemployment likely to keep nominal wage growth relatively subdued, typical troubled households could be worse off with higher food and fuel prices cutting into disposable income.

By 2004, China's annual GDP had risen to RMB13.65 trillion, and average per capita disposable income had risen significantly.

With a high household savings rate of around 30 of disposable income, per capita disposable income amounts to roughly half of per capita GDP. Expanded social security programs and a richer menu of saving and investment options could go a long way toward reducing precautionary saving and boosting consumption.

For most Americans, wages are the primary source of disposable income, which in turn drives personal consumption spending by far the largest component of aggregate demand. Over the past several decades, as growth in disposable income slowed, middle and lower income households turned to debt to sustain consumption.

And what we don't often appreciate is the price that poor people pay for us to have these disposable products.

Since the introduction of the Building Independence Strategy in 1998, low income families have seen their after tax disposable incomes increase.

But first, I need to talk to you about what I consider one of the most egregious offenders in the disposable plastics category.

This has increased disposable income for the poorest families and still allowed New Brunswick to reach record lows in its social assistance caseload.

We need to cut the spigot of single use and disposable plastics, which are entering the marine environment every day on a global scale.

These families with children saw their average disposable income increase, on average, by 2,200 or 9.2 percent as a direct result of the NCB.

An investment of 2.5 billion is anticipated over a period of five years to put in place measures to significantly increase the disposable income and improve the living conditions of low income households.

The disposable (after tax and transfer) incomes of poor families in the US have trailed those of their counterparts in other developed countries for decades. Now the US middle class is also falling behind.

As for fiscal measures, the empirical evidence suggests that three quarters of consumption is based on longer term economic prospects, not short run disposable income. Thus, temporary tax rebates are mostly saved, not spent.

There is no doubt that these capacities and opportunities are determined in great part by disposable income levels, since they determine access to goods and services necessary to maintain a decent standard of living.

Possibly most clearly visible are impacts on prices, with studies showing that the presence of hypermarkets results in drops in prices for dried food, household goods and personal care, thus increasing the population's disposable income.

But worries about potential deflation scenarios are unwarranted. On the contrary, by increasing Spaniards real disposable incomes, low inflation is helping to stimulate private consumption, fueling a corresponding improvement in economic sentiment indicators, including consumer trust.

While household sector debt was pruned to 115 of disposable personal income in early 2011 from the peak of 130 hit in 2007, it remains well in excess of the 75 average of the 1970 2000 period. And, while the personal saving rate rose to 5 of disposable income in the first half of 2011 from the rock bottom 1.2 low hit in mid 2005, this is far short of the nearly 8 norm that prevailed during the last 30 years of the twentieth century.

IHS estimates that in 2012, developments in the shale energy industry increased households real disposable income by more than 1,200. Thus the shale revolution represents a huge stimulus for America, in terms of investment, exports, and a reduction in energy costs.

Second, South Korean families feel compelled to spend a large share of their income (10 , on average) on education. With households already saving only around 4 of their disposable income, compared to 20 in 1988, there is little room for additional expenditure.

Even the one factor that has effectively increased disposable incomes and augmented demand sharply declining commodity prices, particularly for fossil fuels is ultimately problematic. Indeed, for commodity exporting countries, the fall in prices is generating fiscal and economic headwinds of varying intensity.

While modern analytical and detection techniques have advanced significantly in recent years, so too have advancements in technology which could make detection much more difficult, such as clean in place capabilities and disposable production systems, thus presenting new challenges for the future.

And for those of us that have an environmental element to us, there is something like 40 billion disposable batteries built every year for power that, generally speaking, is used within a few inches or a few feet of where there is very inexpensive power.

Another indication of the role of wealth in fueling higher consumer spending is the decline in the household saving rate. Total household saving as a percentage of disposable income fell from about 6 in 2011 and 2012 to just 3.8 in the most recent quarter.

First, front loaded fiscal austerity however necessary is accelerating the contraction, as higher taxes and lower government spending and transfer payments reduce disposable income and aggregate demand. Moreover, as the recession deepens, resulting in even wider fiscal deficits, another round of austerity will be needed.

At first glance, one might think that lowering taxes would make people happier, because having more disposable income increases their wellbeing. But other factors can also come into play, such as whether the tax cuts are perceived as fair and whether they are accompanied by unpopular spending cuts.

In 2013, as transfer payments are phased out, however gradually, and as some tax cuts are allowed to expire, disposable income growth and consumption growth will slow. The US will then face not only the direct effects of a fiscal drag, but also its indirect effect on private spending.

In contrast, over the same period, the cumulative increase was 1.6 times for urban residents per capita disposable income and 1.2 times for rural peasants per capita income. So, China s socialism with Chinese characteristics is an economy where an increasing share of national income goes to the state.

Within the first quarter, the monthly increase in real consumer spending accelerated from just 0.1 in January to 0.4 in February and 0.7 in March. That was faster than the 0.3 monthly growth in real personal disposable income during this period, highlighting the importance of wealth as a driver of spending.

On the revenue side, as many as 63 developing countries are considering raising consumption taxes, such as the value added tax. But taxing basic foods and household items can have a disproportionate impact on lower income families, whose limited disposable incomes are already stretched thin, and thus can exacerbate existing inequalities.

Instead, the government chose old style Keynesian policy moderate tax cuts to increase disposable income and an increase in current expenditure. Between 2001 and 2005, current non interest expenditure rose by 2 of GDP, revenues fell by 0.5 of GDP, and the general government deficit rose by 1 of GDP.

I am talking, of course, about cheap trendy fashion. I'll visit a Zara or Hampamp M, or, now that I am in the United Kingdom for the summer, the amazing Primark and snap up items that are cute, effectively disposable, and so shockingly inexpensive that one does a double take.

China is by far the largest emerging market economy, with 1.6 million households that can be called rich (defined as having annual disposable income of more than 150,000). But this is still smaller than Japan s 4.6 million and a fraction of the 19.2 million rich households in the United States.

I did not have a magic algorithm relating economic factors to voting intentions though I do think that there is some correlation between net disposable income and how people normally vote. But my own technique, which I still use, has proved more reliable than even poring over the political entrails in every constituency.

This year, the US lost the distinction of having the most affluent middle class to Canada, with several European countries not far behind. Once the generous public benefits in education, health care, and retirement are added to estimates of disposable family income in these countries, the relative position of the US middle class slips even further.

There is also a risk that capital inflows to emerging markets will be mismanaged, thus fueling credit and asset bubbles. Moreover, further increases in oil, energy, and commodity prices could lead to negative terms of trade and a reduction in real disposable income in net commodity importing countries, while adding to inflationary pressures in emerging markets.
