He quoted the ways using PCGDP alone was flawed, yes. I'm not doing that, though.

No he told you one of those metrics is flawed.

When you use it i isolation. I cured the defects.

Here is his AI-based answer

quote:

Per Capita Metrics:

Ignores Distribution of Wealth/Resources:
A high per capita income or GDP can mask significant disparities within a population, where a few wealthy individuals skew the average

Doesn't Reflect Quality of Life:
Per capita measures often focus on economic output (like GDP or income) but don't account for factors like access to healthcare, education, leisure time, environmental quality, or social well-being.

Can be Distorted by Population Size:
Small populations can have a disproportionate impact on per capita figures

Doesn't account for differences in purchasing power across countries
Cross-country comparisons based on per capita GDP in USD can be distorted by exchange rate fluctuations and often don't reflect the purchasing power in the countries being compared.


I fixed the relevant problems (primarily the low population and mono-resource export issues) by meshing this with total GDP. The rest is liberal bullshite like access to healthcare and environmental quality (which nobody is using in this discussion).

I'll ask again:

Why do you have a problem using a metric that relies on GDP and PCDGP meshed in order to show relative economic status?

Here is your chance to argue I'm using flawed metrics, in your own words.

No dummy. You learned those terms then ran to the board to show off your expertise by incessantly cramming those terms into any thread you could. It’s another example of your inferiority complex. You have never taught a single person on here a thing.

We have a massive budget deficit. The core issue is revenue and deficit mitigation. Everything else is gravy ... or, in the case of some of you, derangement.

Again you miss it.

Pcgdp is flawed

When you add it to any other metric to reach a conclusion, the conclusion will be flawed.

You still cant understand the basics of macroeconomics.

You should start sometime, you are 30 years behind.

It is a completely, totally, thoroughly irrelevant question.

The question is how best to develop revenue sources.

The fact tariffs may concomitantly increase domestic production adds to that equation.

The fact that other countries or foreign corps might absorb some or all of the cost should leave folks happy as clams.

No googling. Explain macroecnomics in a paragraph of your own words

Then explain inflationary pressures, economic inefficiencies and modern accumulation of wealth.

No it isn't.


I use a metric that shows 4 + 6= 8. I use that to add this metric.. 10+2= 12.

So the outcome would be 8+12= 20. Which is false because 4+6= 10 not 8.
