Like Europe, right? The continent which hasn't seen economic growth in 15 years and each subsequent generation sinks further closer to poverty?

Data shows similar growth to USA. https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.KD.ZG?end=2021&locations=EU-US&start=2006 https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.KD.ZG?end=2... edit: updated link to last 15 years

  The favor the EU when you look at GDP per capita. USA GDP per person growth, 2000 to 2022, 87%. https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/USA/united-states/gdp-per-capita https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/USA/united-states/gdp-... EU GDP per person growth, 2000 to 2022, 126% https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/EUU/european-union/gdp-gross-domestic-product https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/EUU/european-union/gdp...

      Yes. Try actually doing the calculation ((Year 2022 / Year 2000) - 1) * 100% for both and you’re going to see the EU had faster growth over that time period. Though double checking my calculation the US should be 91%.

        Lol why are you counting back to Year 2000?

        Because more data gives more accurate conclusions and 2k is a nice round number. I would go back 100 years, but the EU isn’t very old. I mean you can compare things over the last week, but that’s obviously meaningless.

        Or, you know, compare things from the last economic flashpoint ie a global recession You’re wrong and you know it, this little do-Si-do is just embarrassing

  Why would you look at localized growth rates? https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.CD?locations=EU-US https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.CD?location...
