> Western nations produce more material goods in absolute terms
This is a pretty vague statement. Which western nations? Which asian nations? Which material goods? In absolute terms of what? Measured at what point?
I'm not saying anything in particular, but can you provide a source so we can see the meaning behind it?
- maxerickson 14y agoDoes it help if I clarify that I meant that Western nations have increased their production of material goods (rather than ceasing it, like is implied in the prediction)? I do see that the way I worded it looks like maybe I was making a comparison to Asia. I don't think it is controversial that U.S. manufacturing output has grown.
