What is the total wealth ?



by Doug Henwood


Wealth is tough. Income is easier. Acc to World Bank, per capita GDP
(PPP, with all Paul A's caveats incorporated by reference) in 2002
was $7,867.94. Cash money, no PPP magic: $5,212.56.

^^^^^^

So, in a very abstract sense, if everybody had equal cut from GDP in 2002,
everybody would be "poor", but not real poor ? Or do I misinterpret this ?
