US GDP is fake.
exchrist · 36-40
Us will be 3rd; MAYBE 2nd. GDP is not the only measure of an economy's preformance. This 1st place projection are to fan DJT's ego and distract from the obvious decline of American "excellence" bc of his "excellence" Trumps' BS and our "warhawk congress' " being stuck on repeat policy agenda.
2. China and its labor already rule the world India has a similar workforce supremacy. Usa and its dependance on foreign exports; especially oil, and labor is unlikely to be changed much by a bunch of out-of-touch post retirement age criminals (oops politicains) in the federal legislative apparatus of DC. States will increase or decrease American production, its greatness, and GDP.
3. Domestic infrastructure is deteriorating. Roads bridges schools transit. Once those breakdown thats IT. 4. Education is the real kicker. Our k12 systems are underfunded, over- dependant on course materials from prior to 1980, and rapidly becoming outpaced by and relient on cell phone and "digital" (wireless) culture and "infrastructure"(indoctrination). The next generation isnt being taught to survive and prosper only to be entertained and complain.
The college\university system, which is pivotal to America remaining competetive internationally, is so debt ridden it is liable to topple soon.
These are real issues ! GDP has become a measure of federal waste and spending not just productivity. Most GDP growth has come from the provision of healthcare to a quickly aging and dying baby boomer population. They WIL die out soon. Then where will all those medical professionals be employed?
Where is low cost labor found? India and China; not overly indebted America, as it races and struggles to pay its bills.
THE prospect of increased federal regulation helping anything is destined to be expenture heavy and to be too-big-to-work.
Military spending needs to be shifted to domestic priorities (infrastructure, water conservation, desalinization to offset "ocean rise" and reduce freshwater shortages, & manufacturing). Instead more\only distraction.
America needs to be self relient; food, water, shelter. Citizen provisions as priority! Healthcare cost savings. Mass transit. Instead America prioritizes military spending and space exploration? SERIOUSLY!
There are "bigger fish" to fry. Water shortages are immenient due to coolant requirements of digital processing centers (which are not a requirement of sutvival). Huge food price increases will result. Another Housing market bubble is looming big and the federal military industrial complex is bound to bankrupt our nation AGAIN! If it has't already., IT HAS BEFORE!
Draft dodger trump isnt going to address any real issues. His MO is to Delay, deny, distract, then disappear! Especially when the adult decisions need to be made and\or reality starts to have any consequences. BANKRUPT 4 times already.
He is old and unhealthy. Will likely die before his term ends. Wreck the country then DISAPPEAR. Do you expect JD Vance and\or congress to pick up the pieces? FAT CHANCE!
Pray for\plan to survival\survive! not to preserve America's "super hero status".

Did you know California was just moved up from the 6th largest economy in the world.to the 4th largest just 2 months ago.? This means as a state they are surpassed only by the US as a whole, China and Germany.

@exchrist It is public information. Google it. The reason some people don't know these numbers is because they don't want to know. Its easier to make up conspiracy theories and just flat out lies.... made up numbers to make their cult leader look good.........in their minds.............than it is to Google actual. published facts and numbers. ALL information on earth is on a computer...............if one just looks for it.

@MaBalzEsHari thats true ultimately they dont want to know. Regardless it should be getting more media coverage.

I am not disputing your ranking. I wanted to point out that both the US and China are in a different league size-wise in terms of their economies. They are like two elephants compared to a chihuahua.
This was the end of 2023...............figures always run one fiscal years behind. This article was printed in 2024 in IMF data sheets. It was updated 3 months ago to raise California one spot.

The world's largest economies today are:
1. USA
2. China
In order for India to become #3 in 5 years, will mean for a significant portion of the higher earning diaspora to repatriate.
This is not going to happen in 5 years. Tech industry layoffs/re-alignment work counter India's GDP growing faster than Germany's.

swirlie is closer to the truth than you are.
It's the reality of propaganda. The GDP of the US is mainly composed of services (tax lawyering and accounting, entertainment i.e. rap music and blockbuster movies; while that of China is manufacturing of goods. And US GDP is driven (i.e. financed) by debt. If the music were to stop, there is not a single chair for Americans to sit on. Do you get it, sweetheart?
You're butt hurt. It's OK, try again. Kidding, getting tired of showing you wrong. You may have something to say, but no one will ever know, because most would rather commit ritual suicide than read your tomes.

In any case, here's reality:

America is decline, all spur of prosperity happen in the past 15 years, and now it actually decaying. It was greed and along other things made America fall.

@RisingMorningStar7 I agree America WAS in decline, during the Obama and Biden regimes. Today America is experiencing a rebirth of economic expansion, now that we have a competent president at the helm.

Wait and see.

Okay Dad and maybe we can all go on a picnic if you're in the mood at the time, but we'll just wait and see how your mood turns out that day before any of us commit to any of this, right? Let's all just wait and fukkking see.

I agree. But America is going to be Number 2 at best. Maybe even number 3. Not because of India grows. But because of how much America could fall..😷

Maybe. But it will still have roughly the same GDP as the state of California.

That chart sure as hell isn’t a population to toilets comparison . 1.4 billion people . 274 toilets .

@AthrillatheHunt
Americans do have more toilets per capita but have you seen the condition of them toilets? And I don't mean the ones in the Grand Hyatts but those in your neck of the woods.

@sree251 that’s why I lift up toilet seats with my shoed feet rather than my hands

@AthrillatheHunt
Do you? I do that even at the Grand Hyatt. It's a habit whenever I use the bathroom outside my home.

Absolute nonsense. By 2030, the USA will be owned by another country, probably China.

@swirlie I expect China to have several large military bases in Africa by decades end , thanks to their belt road initiative
