Or it would be gone. Or it would be in the hands of psychopaths. Europe trades off the extremes for a better middle. It doesn't produce quite as many big names, but US and EU economies are roughly the same size.
- gboss 10d agoEurope does have 150-200 million more people right?
- sznio 9d agojust barely over a 100M more
- gboss 9d agoWikipedia says 745 million… that can’t be right https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe So even worse
- inemesitaffia 6d agoDoes that include Russia, the Asian country with a European Capital?
- fulafel 6d agoPopulation-weighted, the country is more European (80% of pop on Europe side). That 80% counts towards population of Europe.
- p91paul 6d agoEU != Europe... According to wikipedia, EU has a 23 trillion GDP (30 trillion PPP) and 451 million people, making ~51k GDP per person (67k PPP). US is at 32 trillion GDP and same PPP for 342 million people - 94k per person
- illiac786 10d agoAh, interesting I always thought USA’s GDP far ahead, but it’s not. Compared to EU it’s 20 vs. 30 trillions/y. Adding Switzerland, UK, etc. and it’s close.
- lores 9d agoPPP the EU is also about 30 trillions, which is probably the better measure since we're comparing production for domestic purposes.
