THAT VIDEO IS 100% BS.

Our very own cemetary’s are full of folks from the 1700’s and 1800’s that lived to 80 degrees, there is no truth to these life expectancy claims. In 1800 life expectancy world wide was in the 40’s? Hardly, this is a FLAT OUT LIE.

I found it fascinating,and fun to watch.

It also scared the hell out of me.

That is a great illustration of free enterprise countries rising and totalitarian countries staying poor. Even today those countries that didn’t adopt free enterprise and encourage individual ownership and reward are poor starving etc.

Interesting, but unfortunately they did not include the numbers of those individuals murdered before birth. Now that would cause on impact on life expectancy and will absolutely impact population growth. Numbers. HA!

He doesn't point out in the video he's using a logarithmic scale for income. On a linear scale Qatar and Luxembourg are way out in front, and the poorer countries to the left look even poorer.
