- yorwba 4y agoYeah, even Iceland, a "developed" country, has almost three orders of magnitude lower GDP! But Iceland also has a tiny population, so maybe we should look at per-capita measures instead. After all, a country with 100 million subsistence farmers merging with another of the same size doesn't suddenly become twice as developed just because there are now 200 million subsistence farmers.
- lazyeye 4y agoI dont really care what the per-capita measures look like. If you are claiming concessions as a "developing economy" whilst spending money on Mars rovers, space stations, building the world's biggest nuclear arsenal etc, then you are not acting in good faith.
