I think they're pretty solid. Stephen Send a noteboard - 15/09/2011 05:25:05 PM
There just about the only EU country I haven't heard bad things about recently. The wikipedia article is pretty badly written and out of date, but it says Austria is one of the wealthiest, highest living-standard countries in the world.

Not the money that belongs to others, but Praziquantel - 15/09/2011 09:53:05 PM 648 Views

Erm. Nate - 15/09/2011 09:55:08 PM 674 Views
Yeah, I don't see how those two figures are even similar tbh. *NM* Praziquantel - 15/09/2011 10:00:30 PM 240 Views
Still a huge enough difference to make you wonder about that map, though... Legolas - 15/09/2011 10:00:40 PM 674 Views
yeah I was looking at the PPP number which is 259B random thoughts - 15/09/2011 10:08:24 PM 685 Views
That's exactly what it is, yes. *NM* Legolas - 15/09/2011 10:20:56 PM 320 Views

There's a flip side to that, too, though. Joel - 16/09/2011 04:31:06 PM 708 Views
I'd rather not have a political debate on the subject Isaac - 16/09/2011 05:51:50 PM 676 Views
I wasn't trying to make it political, honest. Joel - 16/09/2011 08:00:34 PM 647 Views
As Legolas says, that is essentially what PPP GDP is, and why I and others prefer it. Joel - 16/09/2011 03:59:41 PM 884 Views
That's not all that similar! Vivien - 16/09/2011 12:43:10 AM 664 Views
Erm, nevermind. Legolas - 15/09/2011 10:05:13 PM 642 Views
Hmm. Nate - 15/09/2011 10:10:55 PM 731 Views
