it would if the map was accurate random thoughts - 16/09/2011 05:08:03 PM 655 Views

The services banks provide stimulate economic growth. Ghavrel - 15/09/2011 09:40:11 PM 528 Views
Not the money that belongs to others, but Praziquantel - 15/09/2011 09:53:05 PM 623 Views
Closer to 190 times as many, actually. Ghavrel - 15/09/2011 09:37:53 PM 583 Views
my backyard is bigger than Delaware and has more people in when I have a barbecue random thoughts - 15/09/2011 09:47:20 PM 666 Views
Erm. Nate - 15/09/2011 09:55:08 PM 615 Views
Yeah, I don't see how those two figures are even similar tbh. *NM* Praziquantel - 15/09/2011 10:00:30 PM 213 Views
Still a huge enough difference to make you wonder about that map, though... Legolas - 15/09/2011 10:00:40 PM 609 Views
yeah I was looking at the PPP number which is 259B random thoughts - 15/09/2011 10:08:24 PM 623 Views
That's exactly what it is, yes. *NM* Legolas - 15/09/2011 10:20:56 PM 300 Views

Re: yeah I was looking at the PPP number which is 259B Isaac - 15/09/2011 10:22:27 PM 545 Views
There's a flip side to that, too, though. Joel - 16/09/2011 04:31:06 PM 653 Views
I'd rather not have a political debate on the subject Isaac - 16/09/2011 05:51:50 PM 626 Views
I wasn't trying to make it political, honest. Joel - 16/09/2011 08:00:34 PM 594 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 825 Views
That's not all that similar! Vivien - 16/09/2011 12:43:10 AM 612 Views
Erm, nevermind. Legolas - 15/09/2011 10:05:13 PM 587 Views
Hmm. Nate - 15/09/2011 10:10:55 PM 672 Views
Yeah, I started out by confusing Delaware with Rhode Island and it went from there. Legolas - 15/09/2011 10:20:09 PM 685 Views
I noticed the edit thing a while back Stephen - 15/09/2011 10:57:01 PM 482 Views
Yeah, think it's pretty much always been that way. Joel - 16/09/2011 08:55:03 PM 552 Views

The united Arab Emirates... and Brazil...eh *NM* Aisha - 16/09/2011 01:00:09 AM 301 Views
