Gamesmith94134: The Problem with Poor Countries’ GDP

If there is no Microsoft, where will we find Window 8? Eight windows?

In America, there is a 2-3% growth last month, but the PPI is down, so is the new housing. Are we in the disinflation or deflation now? So, Bill, why are you so concern of the GDP? Some barter for necessity, and some marry a wife if he have ten cows. In such a way, no one is read the 0 and1 anymore; it’s all about hardware and software that travels at the speed of light. Statistics fools most of the experts and even economists.

Graphically, you can use the infrastructure in the Human Development Index which what the region carries; and programs of applications like Multidimensional Poverty Index that how can the local government do for its people? This is your hardware and software in opening the Window that give the resources and energy to innovate and attribute for the new looks of lives other than your Microsoft logo.

Many lives in minimalism and data of values are foreign to them. However, some may have more cell phone than food, some made their daily lives with lesser than two dollars a daily; but many survives through the toughest environments. So, I am not surprised with “When Ghana updated its reporting a few years ago, its GDP jumped by 60%.” Relatively, how much difference do they make when accountability is undercut?

“Does that mean that we really don’t know anything about what works (and what doesn’t) in development?” It depends on the nature like droughts and earthquakes and human factors like wars and conflicts. Subsequently, they all need a helping hand like you with the resources and intelligence to put applications to use like the Microsoft office. It helps me a lot with just copy and paste or cut and paste. I went through the toughest time.

At present, with much of the advanced technology and data service, I think World Bank, Development Bank, IMF and WTO are molding the unknowns into the system that is compatible to us that economists are working closely in understanding better of what valuation is applied to their livelihood and providing us a better picture of what development is being forwarded.

Mr. Gates, data service can come later if the environment allows? Perhaps, if you concern of what is your goal for development, think of the Aqua duct stretching from Sacramento to Los Angles. Some thought digging a tunnel in the Peru to turn highland to farmland. Why not you? Imagine the water runs from White Tower to where you want. It gives and develops clean water is a good start; or goes where you think your resources can help most. There is no scoreboard in humanity, and GDP is not compatible with our finance system, besides, it is foreign.

May the Buddha bless you?
