I don't think it does to be honest. Income growth for the world's poorest has been astonishing over the last several decades. The gains are very real and very meaningful.
- astazangasta 10y agoIn what terms are they "very meaningful"? There are still hundreds of millions of people living in slums in cities around the world; if these people now survive on $2 instead of $1, why is this "very meaningful"?
