If these numbers are accurate, says a LOT about Europe.
Maybe India needs their best and brightest. End h-1b visa!
I’m not sure why we are allowing China and India’s population overgrowth to resettle in the United States, thereby unsettling our future and allowing those nations to flourish.
They’re made-up. It’s a forecast.
When there are no borders or separate national identities it becomes easier to create one big happy world...right?
Because American corporations want them as employees.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_%28nominal%29
From 2023 to 2024, nominal global GDP grew $10.5t.
The US accounted for $1.1t of that growth. PRC accounted to $0.9t of that growth.
Rounding out the top 5 are Germany ($0.2t), Japan (a $0.2t contraction), and India ($0.3t).
America accounted for 10.5% of that growth, PRC at 8.6%, Germany at 2%, Japan at -2%, and India at 2.9%.
The World of Statistics is pushing a lie.
India GDP growth from 2000 to 2025 has averaged 4%

Maybe we should stop importing wage slaves from India.

Make of it what you will. Just pointing out what I saw when I went to the home page, or whatever one might call it at X.
Ask American corporations who hire them.
This is a terrible Twitter page.
They show the US divorce rate at 45%. That is way off, and also based on a colloquial and erroneous annual divorces / annual marriages definition of “divorce rate.”
In reality, the divorce rate is # of divorces in year X / total number of married couples at the beginning of year X.
In 2024, there were 989,518 divorces (https://www.bgsu.edu/ncfmr/resources/data/family-profiles/loo-divorce-rate-US-geographic-variation-2022-fp-23-24.html). In 2022, there were 56.9MM married couples (sum of married filing jointly and married filing separately/2 tax returns).
That makes for a divorce rate of 989.518/56,900=1.7%.
The World of Statistics is a World of Incompetence.
Yeah it looked kind of hokey to me also.
When you don’t have environmental regulations you can be the top two producers.
China always lies. Their numbers were decided in a committee.
I understand what you are trying to communicate, but most people gravitate towards how many marriages end in divorce and it is around 50%. That is what most people refer to as the divorce rate and is much more meaningful than a math equation.
An even more interesting equation is the divorce rate calculated by years married. First year = x%, etc.
Just because people gravitate to the incorrect metric doesn’t make the metric kosher. Feelings never trump reason.
Further, averages mask each marriage vintage’s profile: https://www.aei.org/op-eds/divorce-in-decline-about-40-of-todays-marriages-will-end-in-divorce/.
In addition, the % of first marriages ending in divorce after 10 years has been ticking down.
Thus, the annual divorce rate isn’t 50%, nor is the lifetime divorce rate.
