http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of..._%28nominal%29 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...PP)_per_capita Per capita GDPs (meaning gross domestic product divided by total population... I think) Missisipi (Poorest US state) = 27,545 USD Croatia = 12,364 USD Serbia & Montenegro = 5,204 USD Tanzania = 723 USD India = 3,320 USD The US is the 3rd wealthiest country in terms of GDP per capita, but there are about 17 US states which have higher GDP per capita than the country with the second highest value (Norway). Luxembourgians are, of course, stinking rich. |
But would that matter? By that, Mississippi which competes with New Mexico for the worst education would be idolized by Croats for their education...I think its safe to say that the diplomat from Croatia would not concede this point.

Well, I don't know how it relates to the standard of education. Access to facilities and teaching supplies sure, but other aspects probably don't have so much to do with a countries wealth (although being able to teach students computing and sports which require specific equipments would definitely be easier in a richer country, and any subject which requires a lot of specilist books or overhead projectors or other teaching aides. Ok, most subjects then.).
Mainly I put the stats there because I liked them :laughing: but also because I would say that GDP per capita and standard of living can be pretty closely tied to each other. |
Well I'm pretty sure the civil rights movement never took hold in Mississippi.
Edit: Which I'm fairly certain say enough about the hole in the earth. |
?
Edit: ? Whole? Earth? Huh? |
