I just don't like India-hating Pakistanis. Maybe you've been brainwashed by your government or by the nukes you built to protect yourselves from India. but no offense :p

India and China always get mentioned in the same breath when talking about economic growth

I don't hate India, because the people of Pakistan and India are virtually the same. However, I have a problem with the misconceptions around the world, i.e everybody in Pakistan is a terrorist while India is full of angels and is a world economic superpower. That's all.

Correct me if i am wrong, but netherlands doesn't have nukes. So I am not sure whether that remark was due to jealousy.

Europe will be able to field the largest most impressive military planet earth has ever seen. I don't think we want to do that though. We're not really that interested. No offense, but Europe will probably let America do the dirty work (we don't like to get our hands dirty). :/

 

Yeah, I agree with that 100% and that will come back to bite you in the arse. Everytime people doubt the USA we tend to show back up stronger than ever. That does not mean that our economy will ever be larger again than the EU but that is not a fair comparison, cause when I check your profile it says Country:United Kingdom not the EU.



Nobody is saying that India is currently an economic superpower (well, from what I can see), we're saying that they will be in the future.



@ryansarmy - why does a super power have to be a country? A group of semi-powerful countries sharing the same voice can be just as, if not more influential than a single country super power.

The USA's future doesn't look good. It's influence will die down and it will not longer remain a superpower. imo

You know it won't suddenly jump to the size of Italy's economy, it will have to grow to be that size, so we'll be seeing the benefits much sooner.

Also note that these estimations don't factor in the fact that it'll be part of the EU, which will help stimulate growth further.

After looking it up, Turkey is also an $800bn economy, and it's GINI and HDI ratins are medium. Hardly "piss-poor".

 

 Yups, if Turkey joins the Eu now it would be the 7th biggest Economy of all the countries.  It belongs even to the top 20 biggest economies of the world.  I would not call that piss poor.
